Having
the author of a published work such as “Newsworld” come to the class was very
helpful in understanding a literary work like this. Sometimes I don't always get the crux of
written satire and sarcasm. Having him
here many of the comments on social issues were brought to the forefront with
answers. So rather than me walking
around with lingering thoughts in my mind with the question such as “I wonder
if he meant to say…” Because ultimately
I could have said “Ah forget about
it. I’ve got other things to think about
right now.” I think just meeting Todd James
Pierce gives us (the student/audience) a better understanding of his demeanors
and what drives him to put his ideas in print. Then when he tosses out a reading by another author it's like BOGO at WallyWorld!
