    Congratulations on the release, J.E. I worked as an English teacher for ten years, and I enjoyed that job a lot. It was a privilege to be in contact with teens, they are like forces of nature. And yes, making mistakes is such a big part of that job…

      They ARE forces of nature! You’ll have to tell me what you think of Jason…I’m very curious to hear other teachers’ opinions of him.

    Congrats on the release of “Dating Ryan Alback”. I like the trope where characters, who are thrown together as a pair, surprisingly make it work somehow. I’m curious how you realized it.

      It’s one of my favorite tropes as well. I hope you enjoy my take on it!

      Oh, Jason definitely deserves to be smacked once in a while…as does Ryan. 🙂

    I always wondered what teachers say over bad break-room coffee…

      We definitely have our entertaining moments. I’ve always thought teacher break rooms would make for a good sitcom. But every time someone tries to make a sitcom about teachers I end up hating the show…ah, well.

    I had some pretty outspoken teachers in my life so it’s not hard to imagine Jason’s snark.

    Congratulations on the new release. I had one very snarky French teacher. How I hated him in school. But fair is fair he was a great teacher. I learned so much.
