Your editor has been slack and not gone through it for items to interest you - I could stand a helper for this perhaps? Some months the newsletter would be a better offering with some editorial assistance - think about it for perhaps a little longer than it took to decide you couldn’t help in November

Hello friends, colleagues, and associates,
This year I created game (app for tablets) to help kids learn country names and locations. It’s called GeoFrog and went live on the AppStores this week, I’m quite proud of it:
· itunes.apple.com/us/app/geofrog/id1305535512?ls=1&mt=8
· play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.GeoFrog.sample&hl=en
I hope you don’t mind me reaching out for a little assistance to get the word out. If you’re able to download/review/share/comment/like/forward (whatever you’re comfortable with) to friends/family who have kids, that would be a great help and I’d be deeply thankful.
