[Englecturers] Series on How to Write in the Guardian

[Cheri Langdell]

Everyone,

Meant to comment in my last email that the Guardian is now running a series on How to Write, so for those of you who are writers or who may be interested to see if anything there relates to your teaching, go to The Guardian, London, and have a look (and you can follow the links to the How to Write series from there--but it's mainly for would-be creative writers of all sorts, though it may be helpful to those of you teaching literature, too).

Fans of Alice Walker and politics in general may also be interested in a recent stirring political essay by Alice Walker that might interest you: "What our country desperately needs is a leader who loves us"
Americans have been treated with contempt for so long that we have become inured to our own society's suffering

Interesting that she only publishes this in England, eh? Can anyone find it in an American paper?

PS The Google logo for today is definitely worth a glance, too.
