My guest post is up on the Penumbra blog.

February 14th, 2012

In January, I had a short story published in Penumbra emagazine. They asked me to write about writing, which may seem redundant at first, but it helped me put into words why I write and hopefully will help others. Here’s a link to the post.

A teacher today pointed out that I haven’t really talked much about what I have out there, so here’s another link to the story published by Cast of Wonders. (You can also get it for free on iTunes by clicking here.)

Mobile 2012

January 31st, 2012

Are you interested in mobile learning, whether it’s on a tablet, a phone, or something else? AZK12 is hosting Mobile 2012 April 11-13.

Check out the list of speakers:
Jaime Casap
Eric Marcos
Janet Wozniak
Tony Vincent

I’ve attended a conference with Tony before and chatted with him. He definitely knows his stuff. And the Wozniak last name should sound familiar in connection to Apple…

Update to the My Books page

January 1st, 2012

I added a link on the My Books page to one of my current short stories, Rust. It was picked up by Cast of Wonders and is read phenomenally by Graeme Dunlop. It’s a free download, so definitely go check it out.

I have another short story that was picked up by a magazine coming out this month that I will tell you more about once it is available for purchase.

New page: Technology in Education

September 15th, 2011

I don’t know why I didn’t do this before. I use a lot of different websites with many different teachers, so I’m going to dedicate a page on this site to organizing all of those sites.

The new page is called ‘Technology in Education‘.

It will be a growing list, so check back frequently.

Today I tackle a closet that hasn’t been completely organized in over a decade. No hyperbole.

It’s going to be a long couple of days. I have my laptop hooked up to my scanner. That should make it go a little faster.

If you’re taking the AIMS test on Monday, McDonalds will give you a free breakfast from 6am to 9am. It’s Monday only, so make sure to take them up on their offer. As a reminder, we start out with science and writing on Monday.

As promised, I will be the tallest librarian on the court.
