Kicking it off...

I'm a word nut. I love language. I laugh at puns and get a kick out of riddles. I can be crossword-obsessed if I don't watch it. An evening of Scrabble, Boggle, Balderdash, or Scattergories is fine by me. I think words are fun. I think English is marvelously ridiculous and endlessly entertaining.

I started this blog because I'm quite sure I'm not alone--that there are many of you out there who are equally enamored with the peculiarities and perplexities of the English language.
We'll talk about writing, and various approaches to teaching and learning writing. But my vision for this blog is more than just pedagogy. I see a fun place to provoke thoughts, opinions, and maybe even some laughter. If that sounds good to you, please add WriteAtHome, the Blog to your favorites list...I mean now.
