About English 101 with Dr. Vickery

This is where I host/post lectures for my English classes. The ultimate goal is to write better essays, but since essays are all about trying out ideas, we can't do that without talking about who we are, what we believe, and how we live.

   ChatGPT and Why We Write

   In this brief lecture we talk about new essay writing technology and why, while it's cool, it doesn't really have any bearing on why we do what we do as writers.
