The "brainlair" is an anagram for librarian. I found it while playing around at Internet Anagram Server.

I work at a mid size (+800) middle school in Northern Indiana. We host grades 6 - 8. I taught grades K-2 before becoming a media specialist. I finish my MLS/Media Specialist certification in August 2009.

Ultimately I would love to own my a teen-centered bookstore - hang out place. I would feature young adult and middle grade books, have author visits both virtual and in person, downloadable music, gaming, coffee, cushy reading areas, etc! It would be a dream come true!

I read a variety of books with a focus on YA Fantasy and YA Realistic Fiction. I am stretching my wings by learning more about what makes enjoyable middle grade fiction.
