I have completed my series on Job with the addition of the fifth and sixth sessions. At last! This Old Testament book of poetry from the Bible is both difficult and compelling. It’s like a friend to suffering people everywhere, yet hides its treasure in long, inscrutable lines of poetry. I have been living with…

Session Four on Book of Job Up!
I’m getting better and better at the PowerPoint thing, well, the OpenOffice Impress-export-to-PowerPoint thing, to be honest. I’m learning about how different forms of media can enliven a presentation, and how difficult it is to find just the right video (or to make one) to illustrate what I’m trying to say about Job and his…
Third Session on Book of Job Now Uploaded
Well, I’m getting into the swing of writing these Sessions on the Book of Job (in the Old Testament of the Bible) and have now uploaded Session Three, which is on Job’s response to his friends’ speeches and to his suffering. As I mentioned earlier on this blog, I am writing a series of sessions…

Copyright, Moral Rights, and The Facebook Face-Off
As a writer, you gotta navigate the copyright minefield when contracting with journals, newspapers, magazines, publishers. Before my injury, when I was trying to get my work published, I discovered some magazines were better than others in working with writers and not trying to take their copyright for free. And one magazine was really bad…
Google Book Settlement: Not Perfect, Lots of Work, But Better than Theft
It’s hard enough trying to earn a living as an author when people so excited over your book loan out their copy to all and sundry rather than suggesting all and sundry buy it, but when Google comes along and posts that book online for all and sundry plus your one buyer to read it…
The Jeejeebhoy Website Revamp is Complete!
OK, I think I’m done. For now. My website revamp, that is. I’ve personalized sidebars for posts and pages. I’ve learnt the banner at the top is as wide as it’s allowed to be. (I still haven’t figured out header customization for the blank part.) I’ve streamlined the navigation via the top menu and the…
