I'm an English and French Lit major who teaches high school/Advanced Placement English Lit. I read a wide variety of stuff, but I usually use the library (no room for books) so adding books to my shelf is tricky given my almost absolute amnesia for titles and authors that I have read. Not a good trait for an English teacher, but no one's... more »

    Hi: I am hoping to join the AP English teachers' group you administer. I teach the AP English literature course at Laguna Blanca School in Santa Barbara, CA. Would you send me an invitation? Best, David Barndollar

    I would love to join. I went to the sight and was told I couldn't look at the sight until I had an invitation, so how do I accept your invitation. I would like to join. Jane

    Hi, I just retired May 31, but I plan to do a lot of reading, and I would enjoy chatting with you. I had dinner in Houston, TX with one of your fellow countrymen. We were attending the national AP conference. Her name was Jodie, and I enjoyed meeting her. I have joined a book club in Eagle Lake. The Red Leather Diary was my first read with the group. Very enjoyable. J Clipson

    Hello, thanks for the invite, Soserene. (I wish I were a little more serene.) Anyway, I think I just joined the AP teachers group...it's private, but I clicked on "join this group" and voila. I think I'm in. Thanks for the invite...

    Alexfaye would like to join the AP ENGLISH group. She said her request got no response. Can you check that for her?

    I play Loreena McKinnet's song version along with the Tennyson of "Shalott", and I kid you not, even some senior boys get teary. If you've not heard it, do so immediately.

    Soserene, I love your moniker (but I have to admit I didn't figure it out right away, even pronouncing it correctly--also not a good trait for an English teacher). I know what you mean about amnesia for titles. There's a book I read fairly recently from the library, and I can almost see it. The cover was sort of pink, or a pinkish mauve. And I remember really enjoying the book... oh, well.
