AWP Tampa, Here Comes COG…
Honored to announce that my proposal was accepted by AWP, so I’m headed to Tampa in March 2018 with three Cogswell students and a stellar COG contributor – poet July Westhale – to present the following panel:
Taking it International: Undergrads on Creating a Multimedia Zine Read Outside the U.S.
(Cheyenne Mikailli, Joseph Fortuno, Mohammed Zaid Shaikh, July Westhale, Soma Mei Sheng Frazier)
Students and faculty from a diverse polytechnical college – not literature-focused, but ranked 23 in the Princeton Review’s 2017 “Top 50 Undergraduate Schools to Study Game Design” – share how they utilized technology to take an undergrad’-staffed, multimedia literary zine international. They explain interdisciplinary on-campus collabos; getting written up in the U.K. Daily Mail; and how to snag literary contest judges like Juan Felipe Herrera, Daniel Handler, Glynn Washington and A. Van Jordan.

Hope to see you there!
