Getting past failure and weath creation
The Editor's Desk - From Beneath the Clutter
Tomorrow is moving day! As you can imagine, we're pretty busy around here right now. Hopefully we'll get everything done and have a smooth move. We're trying to finish up the packing today.

Becoming an internet entrepreneur and encouraging kids to write
The Editor's Desk - From Beneath the Clutter
Arrggh! I hate it when my internet connection keeps vanishing. I'm on a cable modem, so this isn't a common problem, but it's been up and down since Saturday, which is very frustrating when it comes time to get anything done.
