It seemed like the political side did not want to get involved with the media or was still trying to figure out what…

You, Joel Hammon, are writing a book which may or may not be called, "Teacher Liberation Handbook ." You are hiring a professional editor to edit your draft which costs fifty dollars per hour. You are also asking for feedback on your drafts and ideas. You want moral support and encouragement. And, you want interviews with teachers. This is your absolute first time writing a book. I have been writing fairly frequently since I was ten years of age. My first project was a spin-off of the Fairly…

Konrath is an author leading the new age of publishing. While he was himself a legacy published author he learned just how abusive and elitist the publishing industry can be. Konrath began self publishing, bypassing the "gatekeepers" of the industry to share his stories that the New York publishing houses felt unworthy.

Then, as the year went on, I was expected to lug this book all over the school building until the end of the year. If I somehow lost track of the textbook, I would be hit with a seventy-five dollar to a two-hundred-dollar bill. I thought I would have to…

Composition II has been an interesting class that has helped me to adapt and grow as a writer. I came into this class not sure what to expect, besides the norm of writing papers, but even then I wasn’t sure what kind of papers I would be writing when I enrolled. It turned out that this class covered many topics as we worked on writing research papers for a topic of our choosing. In the time following the start of our assignments, there was a lot to learn about how to research, working with…
