Dark, soulful tales that haunt long after the last page.
Bookotron.com posted a very nice review of Little Graveyard on the Prairie yesterday. Here’s a bit from the review: Wedel is a skilled, understated writer, who takes a fairly simple premise and plays it out with class and intelligence. He also writes with great economy, so that you only have 55 pages of heartbreak to…
The high school went into lock down today at about 1 p.m., right toward the end of 4th period. That was miserable. Apparently, some girl said that two Mexican boys had guns, so we went to lock down and the cops were called. When said po-po arrived, the girl said she was only kidding. We…
I have not had this much fun writing in years! It was a very productive long holiday weekend. The collaboration I wrote about the other day is amazing. My partner is incredible. I do my writing just so I can send the project back and see what she’ll do next. While I wait, I have all…
Not much has happened, so I haven’t blogged in a week. What? You hadn’t noticed? I’m crushed! So, I’ll just throw out some random tidbits from the week and we’ll see what sticks.

I don’t usually do this type of thing, but I’m so pissed off at this Cottman Transmission shop at 8817 S. Western in Oklahoma City that I’m going to publicly call them out. I’ve already notified the corporate office that I would be telling everyone I could to avoid the company altogether. This past summer…
I love those AP kids! We read the last 3/4 of Oedipus Rex today in both my AP Literature and Composition classes. Fifth period (last one of the day) is mostly show choir girls. Most of them had a part to read, even if it was taking turns reading the chorus lines. A couple of them…
It’s been an interesting couple of weeks at school. The new block started, so I got my AP classes. I was nervous about that. Could I teach advanced placement kids? The answer is yes. These kids are fantastic. Not only are they well behaved, but we can have actual conversations and they really want to learn.…
