June 8, 2010

Hi all!
A couple of you mentioned starting blogs or posting things--be sure to EMAIL me the link to your blog so I can put it up, and anything you want me to post on our blog email to me as an attachment with "POST TO BLOG" in the subject line. Thanks. Also, be sure to read Chris Darby's story "The Sunshine Monster" below...

I left a few copies of the handout "Coming Into Language" in my mailbox in Rm 313 for those of you who weren't in class. Please have it read for class on Thursday along with "Adjectives" in Sin and Syntax.

Journal #2: A Place

We've done a lot with people watching, now let's switch to places. Think of a place that you are very familiar with--it could be someplace you go now, a place from childhood, a place you go when you need to get away. It can be in nature or urban. A house. A van. A place you go to in your imagination. Put yourself in that place and describe it. What's the weather like? What time of day is it? What are the sounds, smells, tastes and sights of the place? How do you feel there? Are you alone? Who else is there? What happens in this place? Feel free to make something happen there if you like. Write for 10 minutes.
