I have been in the mode of spring cleaning my office all week (I know, too early), and throwing away old paperwork, cleaning out digital files, prioritizing projects, and rediscovering many books, articles, and student work filed away for later reading. It has been both cathartic to let go of that which no longer serves me, and frustrating to realize I will never have the time to pursue all of the worthy research ideas that I would like to. In many ways, this blog was started eight years ago to test out and "muse" on precisely these kinds of topics. Back then, I certainly had more time to do this sort of thing, but I see now the benefit of going back to the practice of sparking and trying on some of these ideas in short posts meant to trigger and perhaps inspire others to pursue them. I hope to do more of this as I move into this year as I have enjoyed hearing back from readers (sometimes finding a post from many years ago) that they found useful. Sharing concepts in a free exchange of information is both radical and necessary in today's world. Enjoy the links and look for ways to share and spark ideas that will serve others.
