http://cajunjourneythroughwords-lynda.blogspot.com/2011/07/on-reading-on-writing-well.html
A Cajun's journey through words. Thursday, July 28, 2011. 8220;On Reading On Writing Well”. I live in the world of fiction and I don’t ever apologize about finding fiction truer than non-fiction. Truly, I have never seen the human condition as adequately detailed in a memoir as I have in A Light in August. I read The Awakening. For the first time during a summer in the Swiss Alps and, after five minutes of reading Chopin’s book, the mountains disappeared from my porch view. I was in south Louisiana.

A Cajun's journey through words. Monday, July 18, 2011. I am from Tony Chachere’s: black, white, and cayenne pepper mixed with salt,. Settled near the greasy stove and a simmering smothered steak. And a black iron skillet on the back burner and chilly beers inside the fridge. I am from that meager Cajun cottage kindly cooled by father water oak,. Last house on the left of Broussard Street; only we not Broussard’s brood. But I am also from Mama Cates’ carefully pruned camellia bushes. Fan letter to Dr....

A Cajun's journey through words. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Fan letter to Dr. Vandiver. July 24, 2011. Dear Dr. Vandiver,. My students asked to read a comedy and, without flinching, I smiled and suggested Frogs. 8212;my personal favorite. I purred the word “personal” just like you did in Lecture 23 on Greek Tragedy. Never mind that I’d never read a comedy, never studied Aristophanes, never led a group of freshman through Ancient Literature, you dedicated five paragraphs and almost minutes to the topic.
