This week we’re talking Wikipedia vandalism, essays that show their editing work, and creative nonfiction that borrows moves from academic writing. Plus, another deep dive into the NaNoWriMo forums to help out this year’s crop of aspiring novelists.
This week’s reading is a David LeGault essay, “Revision and Collapse,” which was first published in Fourth Genre. Though as always, you don’t have to do the reading prior to listening to the episode.
