For the Love of the Bard...
The Hamlet Look-Alike Contest
http://www.erindionne.com/contest/
To enter or not to enter THAT is the question! Educators entering could win a classroom set of the hilarious new novel THE TOTAL TRAGEDY OF A GIRL NAMED HAMLET by Erin Dionne plus a Shakespeare action figure. Simply print a Yorick skull, pose, and photograph! Huzzah!

Hey Chris - so that your article can be archived (the comment wall gets crowded and loses stuff) consider posting an abstract of your article and a link above with a title like ARTICLE: Shakespeare, Our Digital Native - that way folks that come here later will still be able to find your interesting ideas!! THanks for sharing!!!

If you're not in the adolescent lit group and you do work with YA lit you may want to check out the incredible "Behind the YA Lit" article from the New Yorker I posted in that group today. Totally fascinating stuff!
