Do The Write Thing

What is the status of the impact and memory of 9/11 in your life? What kinds of things connect you to your feelings regarding 9/11? In what ways does the reality or meaning of 9/11 continue to inform your life?

For this blog, write one entry. Then write one additional entry responding to another class members blog.

Consider the finite number of days you have left in your life. Look at that number. How does having a finite number affect you? How does it inform how you think about time? How does it affect the way in which you make decisions about the present? The future? What are you surprised about? What will you do differently?

Once your blog is up and running: Check to see if there are daily prompts on this page. Read other classmates blogs. Make entries on your own page. There is no limit to how often you may make entries, and, while your ruminations may wander, spend some time addressing class topics.

Your challenge remains to create a blog that works!
Your URL should be something like: title.blogspot.com, with "title" being the name you choose for your blog.

Once your blog is up and running, check out Josh Corey's Blog. It's classic in the way it creates a space for public reflection. On your own blog, write a comment about your relationship to public displays of private thought. Is the voice you adopt for your blog site your real self?

Publish your post (and remember to send me the URL)
And check out other class blogs under LINKS-->

The Class Blog Main Page is a Central Station where you can check in on daily Blog notes from your instructor, as well as link to your classmates Blogs. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to respond to ALL instructor prompts in your own blogs and to make entries five days a week. Your Blog may sleep on the other two.

Today's mission: Go to www.blogspot.com and create your own Blog. Once you've done that, send your Blog address to me: mirskin@ithaca.edu
