Live text chats Wednesdays, and in-person opportunities
Sandra Dodd
If you're reading this July 25, there is going to be (or is, or was) a chat for two hours on the topic of awe and wonder.
I won't put a weekly chat reminder on this list, but wanted to say a few things about these chats.
I know the time is inconvenient for those in India, Australia and New Zealand; sorry about that. If there comes enough interest, I'm willing to do something late enough at my house that it's waking hours there.
Anyway, the chats work by people typing in, and it's all happening at once, which is too quick for some people's tastes. No one really needs to write anything, though. You can read, maybe ask a question and read some more.
I've been doing online chats since 1995, on and off. :-)
Sometimes I save transcripts and sometimes I don't. Sometimes the transcripts are fun to read and sometimes they aren't.
But being in a live chat is a different kind of experience, and I invite you to check it out if you want to. It doesn't hurt anyone's feelings if you enter the room, find it's too fast, and leave.
I just took two months off for being in Europe (and travelling nearly every Wednesday, as it happened). Now I'm back!
Except for the week of the conference in Florida ( http://floridaunschoolingconference.com/ mid-October ) there will be a chat every Wednesday until Christmas. The day after Christmas I'll be doing set up and ferrying speakers for a symposium here in Albuquerque ( http://allunschooling2012.blogspot.com/ , another thing you might want to consider attending).
Information on the chats, and a way to subscribe to weekly reminders, is here:

I'm taking this week to discuss something current, but generally we're going through The Big Book of Unschooling and we're up to page 83, Music, for August 1.
