Updated: My Life In A Nutshell comic ("Minecraft")

I've updated My Life In A Nutshell with a comic that is NOT based on real-life events. Nope, not one little bit.

I originally started playing Minecraft as a way of connecting with my nephews but then got hooked myself. Nowadays my favourite Minecraft server is one of GamingEdus's: a safe, beginner-friendly Minecraft Server geared toward K-12 educators and their families, supported by Ryerson University. "The GamingEdus project was founded with the goal of introducing educators to the learning potential of video games with a focus on equity, diversity, inclusion and student-led, inquiry-based learning." Educators: Find out more info, including how to join the multi-school GamingEdus server as well as Minecraft Guides For Educatorg: GamingEdus.org.

Thanks to my friend Liam O'Donnell for the invite! Liam is an award-winning author and teacher who specializes in writing books that get reluctant readers reading. Find out more about Liam's upcoming Minecraft book series as well as his other work: LiamODonnell.com.

I am SO not a hot weather person.

Can't wait until the weather cools down. :-)
