Abstract

Brief excerpt from interview: There was a poem about the walk between my apartment and campus ... was struggling with that, wrote, but then left it ... I didn't perform it in class, so I didn't have feedback ... I didn't want to think about how I was living at the time ... my other classes, I had other stuff to focus on ... as a person the course changed me to think more about the concept of home ... opening up my mind to different ideas of home ... as a writer, if you love writing, just write ... it has gotten me to write a lot more ... I type it on my phone when something comes to mind ... writing outside of class ... helped me get through losing friends ... it has helped me to revise ... a classmate helped me out a lot [on a different paper] to see what reading I needed to do ...
