OOC: See last post for a description of the English classroom and an explanation of how class times & location work out.


Creative Writing :: Class One

"My name is Jenny Schecter, and I'll be teaching your creative writing class this year. Um, I don't really, um, know that much about any of you or what writing levels you all come from, so I think it'd just be easiest if we went around the room and introduced ourselves and maybe said a little about what kind of writing we write. And why we write.

"I'll go first. Um, as I said, my name is Jenny Schecter, and I've had several short stories and a lot of poems published. In my writing, I try to explore the divergence and convergence between life and death, as well as the post-technology depression that seems to pervade society after the end of the twenty-first century, in addition to the social alienation that I'm certain that we all, um, feel in this day and era. Oh, and I write because, um, I think it's really crucial for all of us to understand the excruciating pain that we are all in as we live our passing lives parallel to one another.

"Would anyone else like to volunteer to introduce themselves?"
