Introduction

Hello fellow teachers!

I am starting this blog to share a writing project on which I have been working since retirement. I was inspired by a book by Tracy Kidder (1989) titled Among SchoolChildren. That book follows a teacher through a year's classroom experiences with her students. I highly recommend this book as enjoyable reading for educators. My draft is similar in that it focuses on a year in a school, but the emphasis is more on the interactions among and between teachers and administrators. I also include some background and post school year reflection. The bulk of the project comes from a year long journal I kept as part of my dissertation research. I am currently in the process of seeking an agent/editor for this book proposal.  For obvious reasons I have chosen to keep my true identity private at this time. Please provide any feedback you think may be helpful. I would really appreciate feedback! Also, be sure to share this blog with your colleagues. I look forward to an ongoing dialogue!
