My Fellow Bloggers

I think the blogger who has had the most impact on me throughout the semester has to be Bizz. Although her blogs arn't filled with long diatribes and pungent remarks about other works of highbrow lit (usually), she constantly hits the nail on the head with each blog. Suffice it to say, she usually makes the class much, much easier for me to understand. SHe, out of all the other bloggers, makes this whole on-line reading and writing as interesting as i believe anyone could. When she does however delve into a highbrow book, or a deeper meaning, she does so with great tenderness (meaning making her reference available to the masses), which i think no other member of Emergent Lit can do. She isn't afraid to not know the answer (Blog: "haroun and stuff") "They both imply that stories for stories sake are meaningless or are just simplistic entertainment for children. I remember Prof. Sexson saying something to the effect that FW sounded more like language of babies, or small kids trying to talk which is often nonsense. But we love to listen to it anyway. I don't know why" I love the "I don't know Why" sentence. There's a deeper conclusion there, we all know it, but the great thing is Bizz leaves those conclusions to make up to you. She won't tell you the answer, like so many others, but we all know, that she knows it. So congrats Bizz, and thanks for making the class slightly easier!
