So . . .

Monday, January 14, 2008


Classes have started. I'm teaching two at UNC this semester: intermediate creative writing and a class where we read short stories and view the movies they became. Both: lots of fun. Students: intelligent and eager. Me: looking forward.

But it's hard to know what to do with this commentary. Not much to say about the book, it being almost exactly between hardback and paper . . . and though I could write about all the dear people in my family who almost just died, but who seem quite well right now, I'd rather keep this centered on writing. So I'm thinking about it. And I'm open to suggestions. Over and out.

What about covering some of the short stories that were then made into films? You could give a writers view on why they were a success etc ?

Sounds exciting and a bummer at the same time. I hope everyone is ok. That sounds like a very interesting class. My Italian cinema class is being taught the same way. We read the play or short story first then view the film it was made into.
