Listen Later

Welcome to Episode 1!

Follow along my journey to a Master or Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies through Athabasca University. I am starting with a course on how to write for the Academy as a Graduate Student. One of my first assignments was to start a blog! My blog on 'The Landing' inspired this podcast.
