I had one of my best teaching experiences ever at last week’s Write on the Sound. I taught a 90-minute course on blogging and really sensed that it got my students excited and helped them to understand what blogging is all about. They were a great group too — curious, articulate, and enthusiastic.

I’d never taught such a short format class before, and it was harder than I thought to cram all my knowledge into 90 minutes. But in the end, all my hard work paid off. I wasn’t able to give my students any real technical training but I think they got what blogs were about. And they enjoyed themselves too.

Besides that, the conference was very well organized with lots of free food and coffee. I attended in 1998 as an aspiring young writer and it felt good to be back as a presenter. To all you writers in the Seattle area, this is a great conference to attend.
