You may have heard rumors about me living in some exotic place like Mauritius, the Moons of Neptune, or the People’s Republic of China.

The truth is that I’m living in Honesdale, Pennsylvania, a town of less than 5000 people and home to the editorial offices of Highlights for Children. I recently took at job at Highlights as Director of Children’s Digital Content.

I’ve been interested for a while now in the intersection of children’s publishing and technology. There’s a Pandora’s Box sitting at the center of that intersection. Apart from food, shelter, and love, there’s not much that’s more important in the lives of kids than reading.  The role technology plays in that is completely dependent on the thoughtfulness of the individuals wielding it.

Opening  the box…stay tuned.
