t-shirt surgery?

is anyone out there somewhat experienced with this sort of thing? i kind of have a design in mind, but none of the tailors i’ve been to so far think it’s something that can be done or are unwilling to do it. although the one on university near the mcdonalds said they’d think about it. [...]

creative writing programs

I’ve still about a year left of undergrad, but the idea of grad school has begun to turn over in my mind. Has anyone had any experience with or know of any creative writing grad programs to recommend? The idea of studying in Canada or the UK is still very much an option, so information [...]

Lost wallet

I have just lost my wallet, so I have a quest for someone who lives near MacArthur BART. See if you can insinuate yourself onto the Richmond platform (Near the sign that says Platform 1) and look on the bench for a black wallet. It should have my name, Joshua Kwan, in it. It was [...]

That Bastard Wells…

I’m in the process of writing a paper on Darwinian aesthetics in The Time Machine (1895). I’m arguing that The Time Machine constitutes the literary visibility of the contemporaneous aesthetic debate between the Ruskinians and the Darwinians; and that through prolepsis, evolutionary aesthetics are evidenced to be, like Ruskin’s “theoretics,” pedagogically ethical.

My set-in-stone plan over these last several years was to go to law school directly after getting my bachelors, but I’ve recently had [...]

general critical analysis question

When writing a criticism, is it bad form to let personal bias show through, or is that the whole point of a criticism? I have a bias against a writer, I just don’t like them… Should I keep this bias to myself?  I didn’t let the bias get in the way of my criticism, but [...]

IT SOUNDS LIKE A LIBRARY

GO BEARS!

Selling: non-textbook!

I have The Great Book of Amber: The Complete Amber Chronicles by Roger Zelazny for sale. It’s a hefty book and it’s taking up too much shelf room (I need more room to place my textbooks, y’see), so hopefully some sci-fi fan will take this off my hands! :) The book is over 1000 pages [...]
