Writing the Good Read. Tuesday, July 25, 2006. I have held life long respect for teachers and the teaching profession. There are many teachers in my family and I've had the great fortune of having many great and memorable teachers at all levels of my education. A few years ago, I was approached with the opportunity to teach a course in public relations at Fontbonne University. This is why we teach. Posted by StLmom @ 6:08 PM. Saturday, July 22, 2006.

Writing the Good Read. Monday, June 18, 2007. In Love with Miranda July. For Mothers' Day, my husband gave me a book. Please understand that this is the finest gift this girl can get. Oh sure, diamonds are nice and all, but give me pages and I'll be yours forever. Well, only if it's a good book, I guess. He surprised me by looking about, finding this Web site. Thinking, hey, Mj would like this, and ordering it to arrive before Moms' Day. When I awoke that morning, he handed me Miranda July. Books are ver...

Writing the Good Read: August 2006

http://writingthegoodread.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html

Writing the Good Read. Wednesday, August 23, 2006. When I was a sophomore in college, one of my classmates was the mayor’s son. We were part of a group of would-be writers that formed a society, established for the purpose of hosting readings on campus and publishing the annual literary magazine. One afternoon, early in the fall semester, we were hanging around the English department, me, the mayor’s son, the future MFA poet and the goth girl. I think of the mayor’s son when I write and when I’m caught o...

Writing the Good Read. Saturday, September 30, 2006. I've been invited to join a book club. I'm wary, as I've never joined a book club, only had my own. The current book is. Reading Lolita in Tehran. We were scheduled to meet on this past Tuesday. The meeting was cancelled at the last minute because, apparently, no one had finished reading the book, including the person who had selected it. It was just as well as by Tuesday night I was nursing what has become a hellacious cold. Posted by StLmom @ 3:44 PM.

Writing the Good Read. Sunday, March 18, 2007. There is a singular pleasure in shopping for books at the library book sale.

Writing the Good Read. Tuesday, October 17, 2006. Mastering the Monkey Bars. Remember the first time you stood on the ground and looked up at the monkey bars?

What comes so naturally to us as children; introducing ourselves, trying new activities, can still as adults as long as we abandon that tiny part inside of us that cares what others think. Recently, I wrote an article for The Commonspace. Only this is my first time to con...
