Marketing Behind the Scenes #14

Extract:

When I was studying to be a special education teacher, I kind of liked going to type after a day of dealing with kids. My word processing job at the university was a good place to have some ‘comfort’.

Typing had clear expectations, and projects had a beginning, middle, and an end.

And when it was quiet, I could work on lesson plans and type my own stuff. Like the fiction stories I continued to write, because I hadn’t given up my dream of doing a Masters degree in Creative Writing … I just didn’t know where it fit in.

I finished the teaching program and started substitute teaching.

I was often called back to deal with the most difficult classrooms. Seems that my special ed training, specifically in ‘mild impairment’ and behaviour modification, made me a good substitute to call when you have a particularly difficult class.
