Mar 4, 2013 Awake in Real Time: Coffee-induced Meditations and Journal Entries
The Very Inspiring Blogger Award, to wit.
That’s quite unexpected, seeing as I’ve been blogging for precisely twenty-three days now. I’m a little amazed and stunned by it.
Of course, as Miles Howard puts it, it’s not a “handout.” I’m supposed to link back to him, display the award logo (see featured image — still figuring out how to do this, but that’s the best I could do, given the late hour), state seven things about myself, and nominate fifteen names. Since I’m new to this business, I’ll try and nominate the ones I have followed recently.
All right, here goes: Seven Things About Myself:
1. Indian-born and raised, but American citizen for half my life now.
2. Married to Warren Senders, brilliant musician and music-teacher, thinker, 350.org activist, concert-producer, philosopher and blogger.
3. Mother of an eight-year old daughter, who is the light of our lives, and is full of spark and wit, music and laughter, silliness and depth.
4. English Teacher of 8th Graders in the suburbs of the Greater Boston area.
5. Singer-songwriter, guitarist, composer, poet, short-story-writer, former Drama Club director/advisor/playwright, current Poetry Club advisor at school, current Green (Ecology) Team advisor at school.
6. Avid reader of fiction, poetry and non-fiction, and deep admirer of Oscar Wilde, J.K. Rowling, Phillip Pullman, Jonathan Stroud, John Keats, William Wordsworth, Neil Gaiman, Arundhati Rao, Vladimir Nabokov, Ursula K. LeGuin and Margaret Atwood.
7. Classically trained vocalist and sitarist in the North Indian tradition.
