A Desperate Act of a New Writer
Choosing to pursue writing as my main source of income was difficult and the risks are many.

Classroom Management and Substitute Teaching
This is something they never teach you when you’re getting your license. When I went in for my first classroom observation and I saw the horrors of a poorly managed classroom, I wondered why it wasn’t a topic of serious conversation prior to getting my license. Why don’t we get taught this? How does such an important element of education get left out? When do you push and when do you pull back?
