Thanks for stopping by and sharing your story, Rebecca. It is a story I’ve heard many times in the six months since this was first published. Lynton’s post has resonated with many people. He LOVES reminding me that his blog has now passed 8k views, almost more than all my writing put together!

Lynton told me just this week that he has been working on a new written piece at home about the impact of social media. He wanted to know if he could bring it to grading conferences this week — I said “absolutely”. Kid is a writer, a self-motivated young man finding his voice. Not sure what more you could want from a student…

I enjoyed your post about “soft-skills”. I look forward to reading more of your work!
