So far my writing for the day has consisted of working on a proposal for another book chapter, a blurb for a workshop at this year's C&W, lots of email, blog posts, and a grocery list. Since this is an off campus day I am really wondering if I should pack up and head to the no-internet access coffee house!

Just realized that I have been sitting here for an hour doing teacherly things when I should be doing writerly things. When I left grad school, someone told me that the school year was the time to read and take note of interesting things while the summer was the time for writing. More and more I see that this is a good plan because I find that I have so little time to actually do writing these days. I guess I really wanted to buy into the myth of the summer vacation! But I really can't see that happening as long as the tenure clock is running! Oh well, maybe I better get to work!

I am breaking my own rule about reading work books in bed, this is mainly because I am so far behind in terms of getting this book review out for Kairos this week. I'm reading Lisa Nakamura's Cybertypes and I'm about 50 pages in and I have to say that this book is interesting! I am actually enjoying it so much that I feel like I'm not breaking my own rule. :-) There's a link to this book under my currently reading section on the left, check it out. I'll post a link to the review when its done and published.

Not feeling like I have done much writing at all lately. Today I wrote a proposal for the Teaching Learning with Technology (TLT) workshop on campus and collaborated with Meredith on a proposal for future technology mentoring in the FYC program. I need to get reading on the book that I am supposed to be reviewing for Kairos . Enculturation edition and is just waiting to "go live"! Feedback . . .

Rewarded myself with a couple of veg out days after playing catch up! Now I am working diligently :-) on a book review. Ok, I'm not really working on the review, but I am reading the book!

After taking some down time and working my way through some very real anger, I am sitting down to write this response piece. I think that I have figured out a way to temper my anger and write a piece that can contribute to the conversation. Let's see how this works. More later!

Today I slept late and puttered around the house for a while. Now I am feeling the need to get back to work. I am having a difficult time getting this last article written because I had such a STRONG reaction to the piece that I am responding to. What I want to write is vicious, what I should write is critical but calm. I am having a difficult time separating my personal self from my academic self and that rarely happens to me. I am beginning to wonder if I will actually be able to write this piece!!

WooHoo! Just finished the draft of the grant proposal and passed it off to the other person working on the project. Now all I have to do is sit back and wait for it to come back with her comments and suggestions. Unfortunately, I still have one essay to finish this week. So far this week I have finished one essay and the proposal, so I feel somewhat accomplished!
