The scourge of writer’s block

I would like all the regular readers here to know that I’ve written many interesting and funny columns about education and testing since September, but in order to overcome my writer’s block, I promised I’d never publish them.  I want to assure you that there is nothing at all embarrassing in them, or any bizarre assertions that would have you question my understanding of our state, and certainly nothing insulting to others in there, because I wouldn’t dream of that.

You might ask why I don’t publish them anyway, since I’ve already written them–doesn’t the public have a right to know?–but hey, a promise is a promise.  Would you have me go back on my word to myself?
