I am currently in my last semester at college, working on my final papers for my classes. With that being said, I have not been able to complete as much as I plan on doing after this semester comes to an end, but I am remaining active and am doing just fine. I am working on my senior paper that primarily concentrates on The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien, which means that I am spending time reading and re-reading that novel in order to come out with a conclusion about what this book is trying to say and how one can possibly tell about those elements of war that are almost impossible to tell. I will definitely have a review up some time next month for this work (whether it is written, taped, or both I am not sure). Aside from my Senior Seminar, I am taking a class in Irish Literature, a class about the Cold War, and one about Cuban history. This is quite a way to wrap up!
Speaking of wrap-ups, I plan to share three videos that have been uploaded onto the Literary Gladiators channel within the last month. Two of these are wrap-ups that I taped in order to keep our channel flourished with new material. The other is our 24th episode, where Larry, Breanna, Charlie, and I discuss "The Mark on the Wall" by Virginia Woolf. I thoroughly enjoyed this particular discussion and the genius that Woolf brought to literature. We have five more episodes left of season two, which should be up by May 16th. The third season will begin at the end of May or beginning of June and will consist of thirteen episodes (more details to come soon).
We also plan to release some non-episode material. The two wrap-ups that I released seemed to garner a decent amount of attention (not too much, but enough). Since these videos are a bit shorter, it provides viewers with a sample of our literature based background. If they like us, they can watch our main show. At the moment, Jim has an individual segment that should be released in May and we also have two giveaways in the works. One of these will occur after the end of the season in order to prepare for the next, while the other will be launched once we reach 50 subscribers. As I type this, we are up to 45 subscribers, so there is just five to go!
I will leave you with the new uploads that were released within the last month or so on our channel. Hope you enjoy!

Josh's Wrap-Up For Late March 2015 & A HAPPY EASTER
Episode 24: "The Mark On The Wall" by Virginia Woolf
I've heard lots of good things about Virginia Woolf. People talk a lot about "Into the Light House," or something like that. I don't know if it's the Google connect or your blog itself, but I subscribed through the Google connect but for some reason it was under a screen name I use for Youtube, headphonegirl11. My name is Lixian Ng from Notes on the Shore. I talked to you at that book table thing you were doing. Not sure if you remember me, I look pretty distinct. My hair poofed up a lot from the weather. Thin frame blue glasses. My face in general, etc.
ReplyDeleteI do remember you. You spent some time with the lit club and we are friends on Goodreads and you are subscribed to my YouTube channel. I appreciate your support!
DeleteVirginia Woolf is quite fascinating! I plan to read more of her works in the future!
