I'm on sabbatical. It's pretty awesome. I can breathe a little easier. I can mull a little longer. I can do work (or not) that I just can't do during a normal semester working at a teaching institution. Awesome.
One goal I have for my sabbatical is to write (besides my major project to develop a program evaluation specific to our English education program). I have dropped out of writing for much of anything other than typical work stuff. So, I'm diving back in.
To begin, I reread all of my old posts on this blog space. How fun was that? Really fun! I like my writing self. "Hello! It's nice to see you again!" I enjoyed the reacquaintance to thoughts from long ago, laughing at my "such a different me" posts and my "not so different me" posts. I resisted the urge to edit, and I promised to dive back in.
I hope to use this space again for "whatever" writing--whatever I want to write, say, do on any particular day. I will take audience into consideration, so don't expect a lot of super personal stuff, but mainly I'm trying to revamp a habit of writing to write ("Hello to you, as well, Donald Murray & Co."). Here I go!
Hello world!
