Synopsis
I am a student of language and literature. I have been reading, writing, and studying for most of my life. I received a B.A. in English from Fresno State and then went on to receive an M.A. and Ph.D. in English at Indiana University. I am interested in literature, philosophy, history and gardening. For the last 16 years, I have been a teacher at Peninsula College and, when not working, reading, or writing, spend much of my time in my garden.Note-Content belongs to Wes Cecil, this podcast mirrors his youtube channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ff15w4ufviWfv9UfIuByA
