Stories are not only a way to entertain ourselves but are also the way humans connect to one another. A good story encourages an audience to pay attention to what you have to say, to empathize with you and your message, and to remember your message even after the story has finished.
In addition to the genre conventions of good storytelling, you will also learn:
-
Analyze compositions to understand the choices the composer made and determine if it is effective
-
Perform scholarly research
-
Write a Project Proposal
-
Write an exploratory paper based on a research question
-
Construct a publication schedule
-
Navigate social media conventions
-
Brand yourself & your projects
-
Build a website
-
Compose outside of a text-based mode
-
Launch a media campaign
About Me:
I was born in Bells, Tennessee and raised by a rodeo clown and a snake-oil salesman. My work has appeared in Lincoln Humanities Journal, Juked, Louisiana Literature, Carve, and Nashville Review.
I am a Ph.D. Candidate at Florida State University. I lived in Tallahassee for two years while completing my coursework, and now I live in Atlanta while finalizing my dissertation. I also have an MFA in Fiction at Spalding University in Louisville, KY.
I enjoy teaching online classes and working with digital technologies. I have a blog where I write about Pop Culture, Gender Studies, the Ph.D. Life and my love of books and boots.
