Wendy Golden (macteacher)

I am a busy computer teacher in one of the biggest urban school systems. I started freelance writing in my spare time a couple of years ago, and now I can't stop. I've done copywriting and ghost writing and enjoy writing for others - but Hubpages gives me the chance to write for myself.

I believe it's important to help and entertain people with my writing. Herbal supplements are a favorite topic. If something I write helps someone avoid a costly doctor visit and dangerous medications, then I'm aligned with my mission. I also love writing about technology, relationships, animals, saving money and any other interesting topic that happens to cross my path. I"m hoping to have a web site/blog up and running soon...but first more Hubs!
