Get your literary nerd on!

10/17/2014

Are you secretly (or not-so-secretly) a literary nerd?

Do you enjoy dressing up for Halloween? (Or Comic Con?)

Prestwick House, a publishing company, is apparently holding a literary costume contest!
We're having a literary costume contest, and you're invited!

With Halloween swiftly approaching, now's the perfect time to put on your costume and get into character. Dress up as your favorite author or character from literature (we suggest choosing a book from among our Literary Touchstone Classics) and send us a picture of yourself in costume. It's that easy!

The winner will receive three copies of one of our Literary Touchstone Classics books.

Why is that a great prize? Here's why: Our amazing artists will edit your image and put YOU on the cover of the book. We'll have three copies of the book custom-printed just for you to share with family and friends — these books will never be sold. How cool is that?

So... who will join me in getting their literary nerd on??

Starting off right!

I wanted to take a quick moment to thank all of you for starting the year off right!

Regardless if you showed up to class on time the first or second day, you still made it. You stepped into the classroom doors, and you introduced yourselves. Then, you made the decision to visit this website.

You took the first few steps towards furthering your education.

For this, I am grateful. 

It is an honor to be your teacher this year, whether it be in my World Literature 11 or 11 Honors courses, or in my Poetry Today course.

I'm looking forward to a year filled with pages and pages of stories,
