For Tuesday (4/13) and Thursday (4/15)

by Posted on

For this week, let’s do the following:

  • read Jeff VanderMeer’s The Strange Bird (at least up to the section titled “The Observatory” – – around page 73 in the paper version).  We’ll talk about VanderMeer’s strange but beautiful novella on our Thursday zoom session.
  • finish up your peer reviews in our Wikipedia project (before class on Thursday).  If your article has been peer-reviewed twice, revise your draft in light of this feedback.  Once you’ve finished this final revision, you can start transferring your article/improvements from your sandbox to Wikipedia itself.  Here’s the tutorial on how to move your work.  We’ll talk about this penultimate stage on Thursday.  It would be helpful to start the transfer process by then.
  • finish the writing event on Severance and The Purge of Babylon (see below). (Password: Purge) This will give us a chance to achieve a little closure on these two novels.  Finish the writing event by Friday, April 16, at 5 p.m.
