About
A teacher who writes in public.
I'm Ian O'Byrne. I teach literacy at the College of Charleston and I keep this site as the working notebook of that practice.
The short version: I teach reading and writing to undergraduates and graduate students, I write about how literacy is changing as the tools we read and write with change, and I keep a working notebook in public because I think that's the most honest way to do scholarship in 2026.
