* "Where the Wild Things Could Be" - I'm developing a workshop to teach a little  bit of HTML to 11-14 year olds. It's a 2 hour workshop where the kids create a choose your own adventures style branching narrative. Then in the last part we'll publish it on the web.  826 usually publishes it's workshops into spiral bound books. The workshop will be taught on [http://www.826seattle.org/calendar/functions/popup.php?ev=2455143&readFile=1&readSQL=0&showCat=&oc=1 Nov 7th].
* I've spent 1 hour interviewing and then writing up 2 volunteer opportunities for them.
