When Shannon came to my office the other day, she told me that her blogger user name is "aries14" not "aries04," which is what I used. I finally just fixed the link to Shannon's blog and I got caught up reading all her stuff, which I missed reading all semester. Shannon, you really do have the choice to read your writing or not. A lot of people make the choice not to read. I'd love to hear your words. Whether or not you share them in class is absolutely up to you. Guess I'd say to you: Take a chance! Take a big breath, and then just read.
