Literature Board
This is the Literature Board. To introduce or discuss topics of general interest, please go to the General Message Board. To discuss language, grammar, and related topics, please go to the Grammar Discussion Board. To discuss and ask questions about English as a second language, please visit the ESL Board. For discussions of topics related to education in general, please use the Education Board (launched in May 2007).
The Literature Board may be used to open discussions or to post thoughts (including short essays) on any topic relating to literature. Launched in September 2006, this board was suggested by participants on the other message boards, who expressed an interest in exchanging thoughts about books they had read (and even about some they should have read, including those that they started but never finished). The direction that this board takes is entirely up to the participants.
Students: Please do not place homework questions here. Anything that looks suspiciously like an attempt to get someone to do your homework for you will be deleted. If you persist, your registration for the message boards may be revoked.
Anonymous posts are not allowed.
To become a member of the Board (doesn't that sound impressive?), click "Join Message Board" (upper right corner) and fill in the form. Once I approve your membership, you will be able to post and respond to topics here. (Remember your login name and password.) Important: You will see a screen immediately, acknowledging that you have registered, but do not attempt to sign in until you receive a personal welcome from me. I'm not here around the clock, and the rules require that I meet you at the door, so to speak. I should normally do so within 24 hours of your request.
The numbers that appear below are links to pages in the board. They appear whenever the number of threads exceeds the limit that can be accommodated by one page.

Information and House Rules
> This site is hosted by CitySlide, which controls how the Message Board functions. I cannot alter those functions.
> The boxes in which messages are written permit html; therefore, if you know html coding, you can use features such as italics, boldface, or underlining and can create links.
> Any topic that is in good taste is acceptable. To start and participate in discussions about English grammar and usage, please go to the Grammar Discussion Board. (You do not need to register separately for that board).
> Rude, discourteous, or utterly silly posts and "flaming" or "stalking" of other participants are not permitted. Please treat others (and me) as if they were friends you don't want to lose. Repeat offenders will have their registration privileges revoked.
> For search purposes, try to put key words that identify the subject of the message in the message title. Google's "bot" will eventually pick up message text, but a good title makes searches more efficient.
Climb aboard, have fun, and thank you for being here.
