No class Thursday, December 1

No class - I am sick.

Presentations on publication venues:
On Tuesday you will be giving presentations on your publication venues.  Post your "handout" on your blog as a visual.  It should have a link to the homepage of the journal you are reviewing, and from there you can follow links to the particular CNF pieces you will be reviewing to characterized the journal's peferred subject material, style, voice, politics etc.  ALso you should include a link to the submissions page - so you can point out what the editor;s say they are looking for.  Part of the purpose of your presentation is to call attention to (in)consistencies between what the submissions page says the journal is looking for - and your analysis of the CNF pieces the journal actually includes.  You do not need to review poetry, critical essays, etc,. included in the jourmal - as they are not relevant to work for this class.

These presentations are informal - though you will be expected to come to the front to click through the links so your classmates have a visual tour of your venue.
