UpStart Press: April 2013
http://upstartpress.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 19, 2013. A nice problem to have. When I'm not micro-pressing, I'm teaching at St. Lawrence College. And like many teachers, I just can't read for pleasure during the school year. Maybe it's because I do so much reading when I mark. Maybe it's because I'm tired at the end of the day. Maybe it's because I'm lazy. But the winter semester ENDS NEXT WEEK.

Tuesday, March 12, 2013. Ten years ago, I was lucky enough to find myself in one of Carolyn Smart's. Creative writing courses at Queen's University. I remember commenting to a fellow classmate near the end of term, "I don't think I've ever met a teacher who so *believes* in her students." (What Carolyn taught me about being a teacher is fodder for another blog entry). One of the ways Carolyn demonstrates her belief in her students is by publishing them. Every two years, she compiles and edits. A Long Way...
