Teaching is fun
4:56 PM PDT, June 26, 2008
I've meant to post here much more often, but I've been very busy with work and work-related stuff, and teaching. As I mentioned before, I'm teaching a course in creative non-fiction this month at UNLV.
Working with other people always gives me a new perspective on writing. It's always easier to look at someone else's work to see what works and what doesn't, and I find that the more that I give other people feedback, the better I get at critiquing my own work. Teaching is, I've discovered, not my favorite thing to do, though it's near the top of the list. I'd say that my list looks something like this: 1. Family time 2. Reading 3. Writing 4. Teaching If it wasn't for grading, teaching might move up a spot. |
Bio
I love how "writer, historian" is in quotes next to my name. I really am one of each--I've got a Ph.D. in US History from UCLA and I've written three books so far.
My website has a ton of info about my writing, professional, and creative work. So feel free to check it out at www.dieiscast.com. Oh yeah, there's more photos of casino carpets than you ever thought existed there, if you're into that sort of thing. As far as the writing goes, I'm hard at work on my fourth book, and regularly write shorter non-fiction pieces as well. |
