As of tomorrow, I will officially be Mr. Smith, teacher of English Composition I and II. I'm freaked. Truly, I am.
For the most part, I think I'm ready for the first few days. I have things planned out for the rest of the week, and I believe that is a good thing. However, after those first few days, I'm going to be freaking out as to what I do next.
Really. I'm going to be in charge of peoples' education, their understanding of the written word, their light at the end of the grammar tunnel. True, I feel as if I know these things for myself, but passing them on... that's another story.
I solicit all of you, whether you believe in prayer, good vibes, or some other form of boosting one's support, please send some of these things my way. I will be eternally grateful. I'll let you know how things go on Wednesday.
Me...Kinda
Congratulations!
You've found me. You don't win anything besides the joy of discovering the "official" blog of Christopher William Smith, would-be teacher, wanna-be artist, and purveyor of passable doodles and interesting stories.
My fiction has appeared in Inhale/Exhale, Pindeldyboz, MicroHorror, Blink|Ink, and forthcoming in Pear Noir! #3. I'm also shopping the "final draft" of my novel, Jumping Off Bridges, working on a new novel tentatively titled A Startling Lack of Color, and creating a bi-weekly webcomic, Gibberish.
In the meantime, feel free to peruse these seldom used highways of my brain, and once you're blown away by my fantastical mind and decide you'd like to publish one of my stories or put together a collection of Gibberish, drop me a line. Thanks for stopping by, I look forward to hearing from you.
If you've enjoyed yourself or would like to become one of my best friends in the world, donate to the cause. Or just send me hate mail--that is also acceptable.

Chris, just remember your Awesomeness-- I am a decent English teacher, and you have learned me plenty. (JK, don't freak out.) Seriously, you are great, and they will love you. Relax and have fun.
