Echte naam: Solla Carrock
Over mijn bibliotheek: Mostly I'm just putting down what I remember, though I've skipped adding a few things that I had no particular feeling about. And I think I will skip things like Computer Programming books, which are solely for information. I'd like to make comments about the books, but it will take me awhile.
Over mij: I love books and words. I write poetry sometimes and have been working on a novel for a very long time. It is still way too long before I can retire and do as I like, but then my (self-imposed) work will be to write, paint and write educational software. I have one daughter who is 31 and teaches middle schoolers. She is a very good teacher. I've worked at a variety of things, for many years in social services, and lately as a computer programmer. My career as a computer programmer was interrupted when I joined Teach for America. It was something I'd wanted to do for a long time, and my daughter had just gotten out of grad school and landed her first teaching position, so it was a good time. I taught high school in Louisiana, and it was very tough. I do better with 9,10, 11 years olds, and when I got back to Portland I had a job working with that age again that made me feel better about myself.

Besides the website listed below I have bootstraps.net oriented towards kids, and to share writing (so far only part 1 of novel is up) saltysol.wordpress.com/
