I’m looking forward to it, especially since we have had an incredibly busy few weeks preparing for our Christmas celebration. I just have not had the time to post on The Sower this month like I wanted to. Thank you so much for reading the Sower.

Ben’s Reviews

mikeandsus

Despite being busy, Ben has managed to write two online reviews for infuzemag.com. Ben explained: “The guy in charge said [the review] was excellent, and basically sent an e-mail to everyone on the team publicly congratulating me. He only added two words, as far as I can tell, so I guess he really liked it!” This is his second review, Pushing Daisies. Ben had also received an excellent comment for an essay he wrote for a UF professor. I KNOW these are IB-honed writing skills. Continue reading Ben’s Reviews
