I shall be back here often, I can promise. I've just retired from a career working with students who were themselves planning on careers in teaching and I miss them so much. The blogging world gives me the opportunity to still interact with readers like yourself and I really value the experience. Thanks for visiting. I shall be back here often, I can promise.

After reading your blog, I thought you would be interested in writing about National Geographic’s upcoming book “Novel Destinations: Literary Landmarks from Jane Austen’s Bath to Ernest Hemingway’s Key West” (National Geographic Books; on-sale: May 20, 2008; $25 hardcover) on your web page. Shannon McKenna Schmidt and Joni Rendon create a must-see list of more than 500 literary hot-spots in the US and Europe and offer practical trip-planning advice. The first half of the book focuses on the best literary experiences in the US and abroad, while part two is devoted to exploring ten locales immortalized by famed novelists. Any vacationer looking for a meaningful trip will enjoy reading about these novel destinations! I’d me more than happy to send you a review copy of the book if you’re interested. Please provide me with your mailing address. Thanks!

It doesn't matter how old or young you are, you still have plenty to say that's original and intriguing. Lots of books here that are looking very tempting to me from your analysis of them!

Go bravely into your informal reading education, it is of the utmost importance. Naivete is perhaps the only thing we keep twenty-one year olds around for--they open up new ways of seeing things that others have grown blinded to. As for being inexperienced, we all are to an extent; and you like Lawrence, and you like Garp, and you like Dead Poet's Society, and you like my dog! so I think you have your head on straight, young lady.
