The Singing Duet is Back in Town (They Have Alanis Morisette Down Pat) ... Currently Booking Ironic at a Venue Near You

Actually, you might want to think twice about booking them. Seriously. Although their music renditions are unforgettable, especially as they make up words and have no idea what they're singing. It's nothing but joy from wake-up until bedtime....the forever 15 squad doing their thing as alway.

Cornhole, diners, beach time, campus hike, Stratford walk, dinner, more beach time, and family feud. Karal is in her glory and so are the walls of Mt. Pleasant. The laughter and happiness is contagious.

16 years of storying, silliness, adventure, memories, conversations, road trips, mentoring, learning, history, dreaming, trusting, and joy. As Delaney says, "No one stands a chance when the two of them are together." I like to think that with Delaney, there's a fighting chance.

Also ran into teachers from yesteryear hiking the beach and now I'm ready to gather all the CWP teachers and begin a war agains the nation on redirecting respect for the work we do. The National Writing Project attracts the strongest educators in the nation and it is our bond that keeps us going in the profession. Ah, but the times are dark and they can only get darker. There needs to be a unified front to fight the ugly growing across the nation. Those who fill their hearts with hatred and fear have no clue about the beautiful diversity, and excellence of this nation. They are fighting to protect a narrative that was never true, but beneficial to them...and they will do everything in their power to protect the stories upholding the lies. 

It is what it is, and I don't like to get to involved...just to help kids and teachers to have a better world. I prefer a world of laughter, global history, truth-seeking, and humanity. I am attracted to intellect, light, humor, creativity and hope. 

This is what it will be until I die. Let it be my religion.

Hope. Possibility. Happiness.
