The PVS Upper-School Arts & Letters Blog
Meets 8th period, Room E-7, with Ms. Zachik
All participants will be writers/bloggers responsible for weekly posts to the blog: thebirdonfire.org (go check it out–know what you’re in for).
As well, participants will be responsible for creating new and inventive ways to reach our PVS community audience.
This is a voice and venue and platform for our artists, writers, photographers, dramatists, essayists, illustrators, poets, videographers, satirists, reporters. We compile and promote what’s going on in our PVS artistic/intellectual community, and we contribute to it with original posts. The class will be offered for a letter grade that is not weighted and not part of the UC system’s a-g requirements. We’re looking for–to borrow from Eve Fairbanks’ LA Times Op-Ed piece on writing–posts that are “direct,” that ask “deep questions,” that capture “visceral, accessible scenes and snippets of overhead speech laced with speculation and curiosity.” If you want to speak with a “nebulous and thrilling sense of an audience,” join us at thebirdonfire.org. We’re looking for up to 6 good bloggers.
