Postcards from the Funny Farm

I’ve officially become a “regular” contributor over at Edublogs magazine which is edited by Lorelle VanFossen. This is an enormous sense of arrival for me in my writing career since education is my life and coming up fast behind is blogging.

Lorelle has been a hero of mine in blogging for quite a while now. She has designed some amazing themes that I have copied and learned form. She has offerred challenges to the blogging community to certain topics. These have helped me create some of my best posts at Postcards. Now, I have fallen into working with her at edublogs magazine: dedicated to furthering the cause of blogs in the classrooms. It is one of those senses of arrivals that one never forgets.

I have started a series today there on technology in the classroom. My second post is now up:

Powerpoint as Teaching Tool
I encourage you to read it and leave your comments over there. We’re trying to create buzz for this new magazine. even if you aren’t in education as a profession, your comments and opinions are valuable there and very welcomed to building a community! If you do comment there, I will stumble-review a post on your blog by way of thanks. This will bring you some nice traffic stats.

Respectfully requested by,

Your Damien Riley (the guy from the funny farm sending you postcards each day)

I’m pleased to announce my latest publishing on Edublogs Magazine. They read my blog and approached me about using one of my posts on their site. This was very nice of them. Ironically, my post was one I never thought would amount to much other than therapy for my frustration with paper and “all things copiers.” I hope my light-spirited article brings them a lot of traffic. They’re an amazing resource to students, teachers and the community as a whole. I will be writing to you more about this new exciting blog magazine as I have just become a proud member.
