User talk:74.113.131.172

Hello! I noticed your quality edits to the Student's Guide to Michel Foucault. Please consider signing up for the Wikibooks project. The Humanities are in need of contributors here at Wikibooks. Signing up is great! The community is small, but very personal. You can always meet the regulars at the staff lounge.

I hope you consider signing up for the project. If you have any questions, just ask here or at my talk page. Cheers, Iamunknown 08:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome
Hello, Iamunknown,

So how do I get set up as a user with a username like yours? I guess I should do so rather than just always appear as "74.113.131.172"!

Just call me Kosta. I'm actually a Joycean by training and an ESL teacher by trade. (Poor students!) Really, though, I'm very interested in writing easy-to-understand but practical guides. I've started with Foucault mainly because I think we need such a guide for his ideas, but also in small part as a challenge to myself to straighten out my own understanding of his ideas.

Cheers,

Kosta
