Just wanted to say that I appreciated this post.I’m not in schools or libraries but work with young people and have picked up on some of the subjects you post about. Heathers’ comments are very similar to how I feel although I think as I keep blogging I gain more confidence to express whatever I want.

@My friend Doug – I will be ever-vigilant for LMS voices tht ring true in my ears, and be more than happy to share them here.

@Heather – Oh my you could be describing me in your fears about yourself. Shannon will really d a nice voice to the mix I think. i hope he sticks with it! Doug Johnson is going to read him, and paid him a nice comment.

Thanks for sharing Cathy. I’m always glad to add another South Carolinian to my reader. I’ll admit I don’t read too many emails (particularly responses) on our SCASL listserv as I can’t stand the back and forth bickering and nonsense that goes on (ie: the political stuff right now). I do remember reading a post awhile back from Shannon about how he came to be named Shannon that I found fascinating. I look forward to reading more from him …

As for your statement about “bloggers” who jump in to join the trend, sometimes I feel that describes me. I love my blog as a way to share resources and information. I’m hesitant to write more personal posts, especially about my school, for fear of saying the wrong thing. I also don’t want to write too much about my personal life as that’s what I want it to be, MY personal life. Plus, I just don’t know what to write about, and when I do write, I can be quite long winded and deviate onto tangents. I guess I feel who cares what I have to say!? or that they’ll think “who does she think she is?” The other factor that keeps me from blogging is that I forget! It’s just not a habit yet.

Hi Cathy,

Thanks for the suggestion to subscribe to Shannon’s blog. His writing style is remarkable and I look forward to reading more.

Keep those suggestions coming in!
