He teaches courses in English teaching methods, and literature. He's the author or co-editor of six books and is in the process of writing more, but I am not here on Goodreads to promote my writing; this is a reading site.

I guess I should say that I almost never accept friend requests from folks who do not review or almost never review. Nothing personal, but that is what "following" is for. I mean, you don't have to be my friend to like my reviews or comment on them, but if you never share any of your thoughts via reviews of books you've read, then it feels like a kinda one-sided friendship, right?

I can also say that once in a while I clear out my friends list if I can see we never connect in any way. Again, nothing personal. Happy reading! Less
