Our first courses go online on Monday so it's quite exciting. I share your feelings about Blackboard - only just started using it. Incidentally, when I lived in the US many years ago, I did some co-teaching at a community college - it was fun. Hopefully my stories will stand up against those other fantastic writers.Jonathan Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06169533695637011148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8349236360110556646.post-64771757282492313012012-03-05T21:07:24.241-05:002012-03-05T21:07:24.241-05:00You write online courses?

I really like tours such as this because it allows me to become acquainted with authors I would never find otherwise. <br /><br />After reading your post today, I'm looking forward to following you on your book tour to get to know more about you and your work.<br /><br />Does the writer pick the genre or does the genre pick the writer?

I'd love to hear any questions people might have about satire, insects, and anything else I may be completely unqualified to answer.<br /><br />And apologies - my kids ended up eating the last of the chocolate.<br /><br />Also - note that I am dialing in from Australia so there may be a time lag in my answers to any comments. So please pop back in because I'm definitely going to respond to you all.Jonathan Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06169533695637011148noreply@blogger.com
