Salutations.

It goes without saying that this is incredibly late, and on that note I'm very sorry...

My name is Linnie Greene and I'm an (unsure) philosophy and french double major. I'm still open to the possibility of replacing french with english or american studies... Anyway, I'm taking this course because I love reading and it seemed like a pretty practical way to integrate what I enjoy doing with a subject I might want to further pursue. My favorite authors are Kurt Vonnegut, Jack Kerouac, and F. Scott Fitzgerald, and I'm really fascinated with both the Beats and the Lost Generation. I write for The Daily Tarheel where I recently switched to the Diversions desk to do music reviews. I'm a humanities person (math freaks me out, but props if that's your thing) and almost anything artistic or cultural will interest me. I love going to shows when I feel like going out or reading or knitting when I feel more inclined to chill. I'm from Durham-- don't worry, no allegiance to Duke. And Durham isn't that scary, to anyone who's heard otherwise. It's actually a pretty cool place. 

I'm looking forward to the rest of the readings. Poe is a good start, if you ask me.
