Professional Degree in Writing
Combining liberal and professional education with a strong foundation in rhetorical studies
“The secret of it all, is to write in the gush, 的悸动, 洪水, of the moment – to put things down without deliberation – without worrying about their style – without waiting for a fit time or place. I always worked that way. I took the first scrap of paper, the first doorstep, 第一张桌子, and wrote – wrote, wrote…By writing at the instant the very heartbeat of life is caught.” ― Walt Whitman
