You re good at it, I bet, or someone told you so anyway. Everybody thinks they know how to teach writing because they know how to write. I don t agree. I am striving to give you a new set of writing experiences to counter, or at least add to your list of prior writing experiences. I want to prove to you that there s more than one good process for writing.
Writing is a really good way to process and internalize a lot of ideas.
I want you to try on, wrestle with, and personally transform the ideas you read until you own them too. My classes are always a lot of work. That s just me. All that said, I am very much looking forward to this class. I ve wanted to teach it since I ve been here, and I have done a lot of thinking about what we re going to do this semester.
