		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been really discouraged about my research/writing recently and really hating my teaching as well (not all of it, just parts). I can&#8217;t give up my teaching (it pays the bills), but I stepped away from the writing to see if it would make me feel better &#8211; not so stretched. I have writing projects [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a bizarre week. I woke up Monday morning energized by ideas tha had been floating around in my brain and ready to tackle some writing and analysis. Then I received a letter from the Rank &#38; Tenure committee at my institution informing me that my motion for promotion and tenure had been &#8220;disapproved.&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just finished transcribing the first of three interviews with young women in an urban bilingual high school. They are incredible young women. I swear I&#8217;m going to hit the next person who disses urban kids. Yeah, there are troubled kids in urban areas, but there are also hard working, focused, resilient kids too.

The day I wrote about stasis, I was listening to NPR and someone was talking about stasis and how important it is to allow ourselves to experience this state. Modern society forces us to go go go, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The premier literacy journal, Research in the Teaching of English, has changed editors. The interesting thing about research journals is that who the editor is strongly affects the editorial content. The new editorship of RTE is exciting. Now don&#8217;t get me wrong. I like and admire the work of the former editors of RTE. They [...]]]></description>

And writing means facing the blank screen. Determining those first words. I know writing is mutable. I tell doc students that [...]]]></description>

I feel I&#8217;m finally at a point in my analysis where I have something meaty to write about. Today I wrote up the narrative report for the grant [...]]]></description>

To pull it out, you have to find the stem and very gently ease it out until you find the root end. I finally got around to [...]]]></description>

Anyway, I&#8217;ve been doing data analysis and have come up with some early findings/conclusions and as I look at them, they seem so straight forward that I fear if I present them people are going to go,&#8221;Duh. You know, it&#8217;s so obvious &#8211; why did you have to spend two [...]]]></description>
