Stories... Hmm...

So... of the cheesy love stories I'm about to write or have half-written in notebooks strewn about my house (and, oddly, my garage), which are you more interested in: the super-unlikely cinderella-ish story, the semi-autobiographical "college freshman" chick lit, the adolescent ghost-mystery-fuzzylove story, or the semi-scandalous December/May (really more October/April) romance?

I've gotta say, though, 3 of the 4 take place on a college campus: I wonder why I do that?

More thoughts for the day

I keep getting distracted by the use of who and whom in my writing. The thing is: I purposely ignore the rules sometimes. You could call it diction (or would that be syntax?), but I seriously just want to be clear. I feel like the correct use of whom sounds stuffy.

Thoughts for the Day

I like having windows in my classroom because, on a sunny day, the light shines on my wedding ring and the diamond makes sparklies on computer, the desk and the papers I'm grading.
