Notes for Week 4

1) Your next assignment (which will be your final on our class blog) will be to find a blog you admire in your blogosphere, and write a post about it. What works about the blog? Why does it resonate with you? What does this blogger do that you'd like to emulate in your own work? How can you do an original take on this blogger's approach? The challenge here will be making your post an interesting one in its right: take us readers by the hand and show us what you love.

2) Your assigned text for next week is "Woolf's Darkness: Embracing the Inexplicable", by Rebecca Solnit. Please come to class ready to discuss answers to the following questions:


  • How might the ideas in Solnit's piece relate to blogging?
  • For a blogger, where is the value in uncertainty?
  •  What are your impressions of this essay? What parts of it resonated with you?
