About This Blog

Although I consider myself a teacher and a writer, I am, first and foremost, a student.  My blog, therefore, is about looking deeper than the surface level, which I always challenge my high school students to do.  We’re always after Ahab’s White Whale, whether it be interpretation, research, or simply the white page before the writer.

—Aaron Sinkovich, The White Whale
