MORE ABOUT ME...

Why are you taking this class?
Although this class is required for English majors, I still would have enrolled. I want to lean my B.A. in Creative Writing, and continue to graduate school for my M.F.A. I have heard that, for writers, the greater the knowledge in literature the better. Although, I think literature applies to everyone. ;-) I also feel that I need more of an understanding in American Literature, especially with the classics. So, I am looking forward to learning this semester.


Why this particular class instead of another class that fulfilled the same requirements?
Actually, I already fulfilled my humanities requirements. I figure it is best to take this course now so I can strengthen my writing. Also, I have taken online courses in the past and preferred them.

What do you want to learn from this class?
As much as I can.

What do you expect to do in this class?
Read. Think. Write. Work. Discuss.

What else you should know about me:
I am a slowly improving writer. ;-)

Usually I am a serious-type person, but sometimes my sense of humor creeps up on me.

I moved west several years ago and, frankly, I don't know why I didn't move this way sooner.

My hobbies are writing, reading, T.V., and video games. I have been a gamer for twenty years now. Yikes. ...but, I have been writing for even longer.

Favorite movies that come to mind are Secret Window and Dracula: Dead and Loving It. The first is horror, the second a comedy on horror. ;-) Actually, my family loved them. Sometimes it is the memories which help form my favorites, and not just my personal preference.

I guess that is it for now. I look forward to working with you all this semester.

Hey star, what's up? I see that your sense of humor creeps up on you sometimes. What's that like? I suppose that could be kind of scary. I also way prefer the West Coast, there is just such a different vibe out here. I grew up in California and am glad that I did not relocate too far to the east. I also like games, but really only group games because then you get the social interaction along with the fun games. That's why the Wii is currently my favorite system. I also look forward to working with you this semester.
Do you find this valuable?
