Before Tuesday, please read "Statement by the Editors" in Fold Appropriate Text. You can download this journal as a PDF for free on the Insert Press website. The first "Click Here" is the journal; the second "Click Here" is the literary supplement.
Also, choose one (1) LA-Lit interview and listen to it. These are all hosted at Penn Sound. Here's the link.
I'll also be looking for your responses to each others posts, posted here before Tuesday's class.
We'll be picking up this conversation on Thursday. Two additional readings for Thursday:
