Welcome to the first blog post of this semester's "Writing for the Arts" class at the Delaware College of Art and Design. Below you'll find a link for an interview with the artist, writer, and law professor Yxta Maya Murray. Her new novel, Art is Everything, combines traditional and innovative writing strategies to address ideas and experiences at the intersections of art, identity, politics, and equity.
This Thursday, January 21, we'll have a brief reading quiz at the start of class. It will not be a "gotcha" kind of quiz, but rather an opportunity for you to share your ideas and reactions in writing about the issues she discusses with your classmates. The interview is comprised of only nine questions, but many of the responses are fully developed over several paragraphs. It was published just three days ago, on January 15, 2021.
If you have any questions, send me an email message at csmith@dcad.edu.
Welcome to the class, Casey
