  Sometimes a poem just happens in plain air. – Dick Jones, 'Song Without Words' I first discovered the poetry of Dick Jones a couple of years ago. He posted a poem on his site called 'Fox Hunting' which I stumbled across — as you do — and I was so struck by his use of language that I immediately subscribed to his blog and have read it faithfully ever since. It just goes to show that decisions made on impulse can be good ones.

No, it doesn’t have to be Bilbo. It can be Pippi, Huckleberry, or even Old Yeller! Regardless of what you choose, there is not much more you can achieve with packaged language arts curriculum than you can with a good old-fashioned, well-written book. Over the years we have purchased a few books to guide us in our endeavors, but more often than not I end up just using good fiction from our bookshelves and scrap the “textbook-y” stuff.

The following post from my old blog I wrote during my PhD program. I am reflecting on this today as I begin my first day on my new job.

There are examples of these themes through the “fog” and the succeeding events that Marlow illustrates.

Well, there are several reasons - clients wanting to pay in royalties ; expecting me to also publicize, market, and sell the book; wanting endless revisions even with a contract that stated otherwise; and the posse coming in to trash all the work the client and I had done to that point, casting aspersions on my abilities. The biggest was the last one. I cannot convince people, no matter how much they're paying me, that the advice of fri
