Ladies and gentlemen, I have a job for next spring!
I will be teaching “Writing Speculative Fiction” as a Collins course. And I’m giddy about the prospect.
A million thanks to everyone who contributed suggestions for the reading list a few months back. I’ll post a finalized version of that list when I teach the course; between now and then it might get tweaked a bit.
And now, knowing that I have a year of employment secured, I can relax and start breathing again.
Woot! Congratulations!! 🙂
Domo!
huzzah!
congrats, neighbor! (that is fun to say that…)
Neighbor-in-progress, but we’re making good speed.
Can we arrange a time for you to come take a look at the bed and see if you want it?
i’ll come buy later today? after 6pm?
Just give a call first to be sure I’m here.
Congratulations!
Thanks! I’m really excited about this one.
Hooray! That should be all of the awesome. 🙂 And funding is a wonderful thing.
Funding is indeed wonderful.
YAY!!!!! Very glad for you!!!
Thankee!
Hooray!!!
Yup. ^_^
Is it open to disillusioned grad students?
I’m not sure. I know that any undergrad can sign up for a Collins course, but I’m not sure about graduate students. It will be listed as a 200-level course, so it might be that you could register, but you wouldn’t get grad credit.
I’m not terribly concerned with grad credit and all that. But I don’t want to boot out Collins undergrads and the like, so I will wait and see. At the very least I might be able to audit or something. *shrug*
Congratulations, by the way.
Auditing probably won’t work, I’m afraid, since class is organized in a workshop format. But you might be able to enroll.
Congratulations. Slightly worried about your teaching given the icon 😛
<lol> Well, see, my fall course is on fairy tales, and in trying to decide what icon to use for teaching-related posts, my eye fell on Maleficent. Who looks a little bit like she’s lecturing. And she’s in a fairy-tale movie. So it seemed appropriate . . . and really, the fact that it’s also a little ominous was just icing.
*grin*
How lucky to have a course on fairytales! Jealous muchly!
Congratulations! Breathing is a good thing. :p
Sounds interesting. Have you taught a class before?
I’ve been a TA for four years; next fall will be my first time teaching a course on my own.
Oh! I bet that’s really exciting! Have fun! 😀
Sweet zombie jesus! That’s fantastic!
Shit, *I* want to take that course! =D
Whee! That’s awesome!
