It is the responsibility of writers to listen to gossip and pass it on. It is the way all storytellers learn about life. (Grace Paley)

If there's anything worth calling theology, it is listening to people's stories, listening to them and cherishing them. (Mary Pellauer)

I have no stories today. Come again another day. But I do have six invites to gmail. Does anyone want one?

About Me
- Vanessa
- The youngest child of two social workers, I turned out to be lots of things—policy advocate, writer for telecom enterprises, professor of composition, and public school teacher for 4th and 6th graders in Harlem. I feel luckiest to have been a teacher. After stints in Chicago, Boerum Hill Brooklyn, and the Upper West Side of Manhattan, I am home again, proud as the rest of them of this majestic and mysterious state. The blog, here since 2002, has been a journal of my experiences teaching, of home, and of transitional states. Please enjoy.
