I’m in my final semester at Clemson and have been doing some reflecting on the future. Trying to make decisions about MFA programs. Getting ready to (hopefully) move out of S.C.
In the more immediate state of things, I’m doing a directed study in Old English this semester. For a project, I’m thinking of taking the poems of Zachary Schomburg and Aase Berg (among others) and translating them into Anglo-Saxon. I think Schomburg and Berg are two of the finest poets working today, and I’m hoping that by delving into their poems from a linguistic angle will assist my becoming better acquainted with their works, and perhaps, will open up new personal interpretations.
Virginia the Snail died. I got two more: Vivian and Vernon. Here are two snails outside:
These aren’t my new snails. (My snails live underwater. How’s that for adorable?)
