Hi, I'm Brenda M. Resch, I couldn't read for over 25 years! BUT I went to college? I became a "reader" while raising my children. Back to college AGAIN as a "retread"! I became a "facilitator"! WOW! I did it! I became a fall "visitor" on 22 to 30 young peoples' "turf" each year for 24 years. At 40 I found the wonderfully exciting world of "young adults" Back to college AGAIN! Oh no, I missed the "Rule of 90"! BUT that's OK, I' m still "loving it"!

Just who is this Brenda Resch????
