Shortest Blog Post to Date!

I'm completely absorbed in getting the draft of my paper done for tomorrow. In fact, I've spent a gazillion hours on it during the last three days. Whew!

Anyway, I have been doing the reading for tomorrow night's class, which entail a feminist perspective on rhetoric. I'm really enjoying these articles because I did a women's studies minor as an undergrad, and the readings are bringing back fond memories of those days.

I liked Choudhury's article on "adverts" in India and what they're doing to shape people's beliefs and expectations. I'm about half finished reading the Brasseur article, which I find is a little less helpful because it seems to be a recipe for developing a women in rhetoric class, which I have no plans to do. It does contain some valuable nuggets, though, and I'm actually using a quote from it in my paper!

More tomorrow.
