TeenInk
is a printed monthly publication and an on-line weekly magazine, written
entirely by teens for teens. They have no staff writers so they depend on
teens for material. Each issue (read by hundreds of thousands of teenagers) contains articles
by students representing schools nationwide. In addition to the printed
version, their weekly on-line version gives even more teenagers an
opportunity to be heard worldwide. |

What started out for me as a cyber-hunt on Robert Frost reading some of
his own poetry, turned into hours of listening to other authors and poets
reading their own work (Barbara Kingsolver, Wally Lamb, Charles Bukowski,
Jewel, James Joyce…the list goes on). I
never did hear Robert Frost! Go to this web address and
follow the Audio link. You
must have Real Audio loaded on your machine. Be sure you have a
few hours to kill... |
