CWRI 703: Writing for New Media

Hello, and welcome to my new media course blog. I'm a graduate student at Savannah College of Art and Design working on a MFA in Contemporary Writing. To fulfill the requirements of CWRI 703, I'm completing an independent study project on new media.

In case you haven't guessed, this will be my course blog. All my reading analysis and responses, essays and work will be available here. However, all of it is my work, and needs to be treated as such. If you would like to use any of my work as research or reference, please cite your source like any responsible research-paper-writer should!
