Summer Work

The school year has ended (insert happy noises) and the summer work has begun. Lest you feel sorry for me that I have to work in the summer, I should clarify that I’m referring to working on my novel, working on my reading, working on my poetry, and working on my tan. I’ve got a

I though I knew what Busy was

Once upon a time I was a high school student with a full load of challenging classes and a job and family responsibilities and I thought I was busy. Once upon a time I was a college student with a full load of challenging classes and a job and no social life to speak of

Breaks

Do you ever think?

I know you do. I meant, do you ever think you could do something amazing? Like… do you ever think you could, with your very own small life, write a memoir that someone would READ? Do you ever think that — years from now, when you’re gone — someone will think of you? Do you

Overheard

At the end of last school year, I taught a bunch. I told you about that when it was happening, it seems to me. So one day, this thing happened, and I have been thinking about it over and over and over for MONTHS now. Let’s discuss, shall we? All right. So I was in
