Essential Information After High School Graduation

by Michael Anthony White

Overview

Many subjects critical to personal growth have slowly become regarded as inflammatory: Communication. Culture. Money. Nutrition. Science. Social Media. Politics. Equality. Feminism.

Refreshingly operating without bias, these "hot seat" topics are constructively discussed with intelligence and heart - going far beyond the offerings of public school curriculum.

About the Author

Michael is a computer geek/band geek hybrid from Generation X, raised in the quaint Danish village of Solvang, California. Venturing to San Diego, and later to the Pacific Northwest before returning to his hometown, he has enjoyed a fruitful career in the computer and tech support industries for nearly 25 years. Outside the cubicle, he can be found recording music in his home studio, brewing ale & mead, hosting board game parties, as well as playing plenty of video games with powerfully moving soundtracks. Always one to enjoy spinning a witless yarn, he's at last fulfilled his desires to spew forth choice fragments of the knowledge and wisdom he's gratefully acquired over the years. He still misses Saturday morning cartoons and music videos, dearly.
