Where Have I Been?

I just realized that I haven't written in awhile.

Well maybe not "just realized" since it's been about four months and I've had a pretty consistent mantra in my head stating this very fact.

While I cannot put the blame on anyone but myself, I am going to provide a defense in two simple words:

Grad. School.

You see, this accidental librarian is obtaining her second (yes I said second) master's degree.

And this semester literally took the writing out of me...

Seven (yes I said seven) research papers on various topics of multicultural literature, one ten-day thematic unit emphasizing the collaboration efforts of the librarian and classroom teacher, two highly descriptive lesson plans (complete with updated Bloom's taxonomy references for you teacher folk), one annotated bibliography consisting of thirty-five resources, and a partridge in a pear tree.

A pretty good defense...right?

I didn't have writer's block, I had writer's exhaustion. While I had numerous ideas, actually writing them down was simply not gonna happen.

So now that I'm on break, please look for more posts.

I promise to write a few...

...or a couple...

...at least one more than this post that you are so kindly reading right now!

I hope to write enough to hook you so that you wonder about me when I go silent again at the start of my next semester.

Just kidding...about the writing enough part.

Of course I want you to wonder about me!
