When I got my current job, I had the choice of a grant funded job, or this one. I took this one because the funding is secure until the department is closed down. With a grant funded job, youâll probably have more interesting work. Itâll look good on your resume and teach you a lot.
My first book, Sideways Stories from Wayside School was not distributed well when it first appeared in 1978. The book was difficult for parents and teachers to find. It never sold very many copies, but I got lots of fan letters that greatly encouraged me.
The book Downsiders by Neal Shusterman is a fabulous tale of secrets, lies, and the fear of the unknown. A teenage boy named Talon was out on a mission with his friends completing their first few tasks in order to enter adulthood. They were patrolling the underground tunnels that they live in, looking for fallers.
