I teach university transfer English composition and literature, and am famous for my “romantic poets as lovers” metaphor.  Among my secret super-powers is a powerful disapproving stare, and I’m not afraid to use it.  My academic interests include fantasy and science fiction, children’s literature, 20th century metafiction, intertextuality, and popular culture; I’m also something of an expert on online teaching and the use of social networking in education. When I’m not teaching, I can be found walking my dogs, weeding my garden or taking photographs.
