Rory Waterman, David Belbin, Georgina Lock and Andrew Taylor introduced themselves to the students and the course structure was laid out. I was impressed with the layout and I have quite a lot of work to do&#8230;deadlines are good as I would default to laziness if did not have them!<\/p>\n<p>We got a sense of the interests of the tutors and there was some joking about the similarities and differences especially in &#8216;poetics&#8217;. I immediately had a sense that a lot had happened in poetry since my extended &#8216;absence&#8217; especially in academic poetry so when given a reading list and an empty library (all the students off being &#8216;welcomed&#8217;)I set about rounding up a few books and also finding out a couple I had heard about but not purchased like the Ludwig and Fietz &#8216;Non-Metropolitan perspectives&#8217;. I also came across the Hazel Smith (Australian) book which seemed to do a good job of exploring all the new&#8217;territories&#8217; whether I wished to visit or not.<\/p>\n<p>Finally I spent so much time delving through the shelves (ex-librarian syndrome) that I completely forgot to go to the social and missed the wine&#8230;and the social&#8230;oh well there plenty of events coming up to meet people.<\/p>\n<p>Here what I snaffled up and hopefully I will have got through the &#8216;creative writing&#8217; histories by first Poetry session on 5th October. Oh the How Novelists Work (Maura Dooley ed.) is my own copy rest in Library I also came away with the Eisner book as found a Graphic Novel section:-)<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-666\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/books.jpg?resize=300%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"books\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/books.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/books.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/books.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/eisner.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-667\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/eisner.jpg?resize=300%2C300&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"eisner\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/eisner.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/eisner.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/shaunbelcher.com\/writing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/eisner.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday was the induction day at Clifton.
