Telling Tales

This post is a cross post from my original in the  OSSEMOOC  June 2014, 30 days of collaborative blogging “Picture and Post” series.

I always enjoy opportunities to connect with  Stephen Hurley  or read his blog. I have recently enjoyed opportunities on both fronts – wonderful professional discussion and learning!

In this tweet, Stephen directs readers to a wonderful blog post where he reminds of the importance of telling our stories.
