New Blog

For anyone who's interested, I've started a new blog that's mostly just about me and my writing and whatever else I choose to talk about.

It's not related to academia, English lit, university, or anything of that sort. I've had a lot happening with my writing career lately and was beginning to feel strange about even mentioning it on "Literary Pursuits," which is a shame because I always thought I could do both. But this has become a blog that's mostly devoted to teaching English, and I have plenty of other stuff I wanted to talk about.

I'm aware that lots of people besides students and former students check out this blog, and some get a little bored with all the talk of grammar and that kind of thing. So this is a new page, a brand new blog for me to talk about...myself. If that very thought offends you, don't worry: you don't have to go there. But if you're halfways curious, check it out, whoever you are.

Here's the link: http://gerardcollinsblog.blogspot.com/

Meanwhile, I'll continue to blog here at "Literary Pursuits" for my students. Next up, I'll discuss some poetry assignments that are due on Friday. The cool thing now is that I don't have to keep saying, "For those of you doing my courses this semester." If you're looking for me and my more personal, creative stuff, go to my other blog. That's where it's at.
