Notes From Tanya:

I just wanted to post a note here telling you what we are doing. This blog is a record of the life of my friend RKat14 who is 67 years old, he is a resident of the State of Maine and has been all his life. He worked as a fisherman or in the fishing industry for at least 45 years. I am working with him on his reading, writing and math through the Literacy Volunteers of Greater Portland program. We meet at the local library once a week to study and we will be working on a Autobiography of his life using the book "The Book of Myself" by Carl and David Marshall. This book gives us 201 Questions to work from. We will be writing on one question a week, perhaps more than one, depending on our time. RKat14 has been trying to learn to read for years, he feels good about his progress right now.
