There has to be a kind of irony in using a blog - the new millenia's life writing mode of choice - as my journal for a University of Melbourne subject on life writing.
But I'm all out of natty hardcover journals, my handwriting is shocking (and I have to hand this in at the end of semester) and I'll be travelling a bit during semester, so using a blog and then printing it out seems to make sense.
So that's a sufficient, if not necessary, first post. To follow: transcriptions from reading so far and a couple of booklists. I think the journal is for class exercises and readings, but I'll also be putting in my thinking on my essay and my creative piece. So that's five categories: Exercises, readings, class notes, essay, creative piece - what, that's only five? - you've forgotten the most important, and the category this falls into: administrivia. The which, one hopes, I will exclude from my final journal submission.
