Cluster - Say Anything
I'm probably one of the few people left who actually keeps the paper & pen journal. One of the many highlights is the ability to Mod Podge magazine clippings of Jim Morrison and Robert Plant onto the pages and wrap my words around them. So it comes as no surprise that I also use the pages of my journal for idea clusters. Below is a sample of such a cluster for my revisions on an essay regarding the 1989 teen classic, Say Anything.
In case you are curious, that is a heart next to Paul Westerberg's name and I did write "Jeremy Piven's hairplugs."

Recommended Reading
During the course of my research this week, I came across Michelle Slatalla's "I Wish I Could Read Like a Girl". It is one of the few pieces I've read that discusses the conundrum of the pure act of reading versus the learned performance of reading (a sort of rote reading, if you will). Definitely worth perusing, especially for the disillusioned literary academic such as myself.
