What an honor to be able to work in this new way, and I look forward to your new teaching stories. You and Brad, and all the authors of the stories, cover so many ages, topics, and offer so many ideas.

I began a garden journal of photos on my blogs a few years ago. You are welcome to use any of my photos. I enjoy the WordPress challenges. My name links to my primary blog, Poems From Oostburg, Wisconsin.

Some of what you say here reminds me of Madeleine L’Engle’s advice about writing. There is this combination of discipline and mystery . . .

All the best – Ellen
