Cool... Todd's in Town!!!



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!
