TWU's literary journal is hosting an online "write-in" tomorrow evening at 7 p.m. The details are set forth in the poster below.

"'I am going to try to convince you that the deeper your understanding of the past,' Jacobs writes, 'the greater personal density you will accumulate.' He takes the phrase 'personal density' from Thomas Pynchon’s famously difficult novel Gravity’s Rainbow. In the novel, an engineer character argues that by deepening your temporal bandwidth, primarily through engagement with the past, you increase your personal density. And reading old books as a way to engage the past is akin to breaking bread with the dead." https://www.christianitytoday.com//alan-jacobs-breaking-br
