“Author, Author!”
a previous life–writing senior high ELA textbooks, over a 30 year period (1980-2010)–during which I wrote and edited 25 textbooks, 24 teacher’s guides and 4 unpublished textbooks that publishers initiated, but later bailed on. So, over 50 books all together.
Most of these were authorized in many provinces. Some books had several authorizations. Amazingly, some of these books are still used today hither and yon, some 23 years old. In all, a total of over 1 million books had been sold by the early 2000s.
