Book Projects:
Remember to keep up with your book project. You should have chosen the project you will be doing for October by now. Also, you should be well into the process of planning and gathering materials. If you work on your project bit by bit – it will not overwhelm you.
We will both be at a conference on Friday, so any rough drafts must be brought in by tomorrow if you would like us to check them for you.
For all of you out sick – Concentrate on getting well. Do the best you can to get some work done at home, and we will get you caught up with the rest when you return. Your health should be your main priority!
