Connections

OK, so this is not as good as Book Nook Girl's story of Barbara O'Connor but I was perusing the new resources sent to me by Teaching Books.net and came across the name of an elementary school friend. I had stumbled upon a memoir she had written a few years back so I knew she was an author but I hadn't realized she was now writing for young adults. Anyway, I read the interview, looked at her blog and then chose to post a comment just saying hi and congratulate her on her success. I didn't know if she would even remember me since we were very young when she moved away. I was a little surprised and extremely happy to find a comment waiting to be moderated in my inbox this morning from her! She found this blog and responded. VWB has continually reminded us how the world is shrinking and connections or reconnections are being made in this 2.0 world. OK, I get it.
