It doesn't take an English degree to be able to write; however, it does take a little effort and determination to be a good writer. Many good writers find themselves having to double-check their work to ensure the word they've chosen is the correct one, or that their format conforms to standards.

Media are poetic forces. They produce and reveal worlds, representing them to our senses and connecting them to our lives. While the poetic powers of media are perceptual, symbolic, social and technical, they are also profoundly moral and existential. They matter for how we reflect upon and act in a shared, everyday world of finite human existence. The Poetics of Digital Media explores the poetic work of media in digital culture. Developing an argument through close readings of overlooked or denigrated media objects – screenshots, tagging, selfies and more – the book reveals how media shape the taken-for-granted structures of our lives, and how they disclose our world through sudden moments of visibility and tangibility. Bringing us face to face with the conditions of our existence, it investigates how the ‘given’ world we inhabit is given through media. This book is important reading for students and scholars of media theory, philosophy of media, visual culture and media aesthetics.

DA(c)nouement (de nu maw): n. [Fr.] the ultimate outcome to a complicated sequence of contributing events. In this powerful and immensely readable book, Brian Strobel diagnoses the subtle yet continuous changes experienced by American society over the last fifty yearsCchanges that have the potential to destroy the nation. By showing how the decline of morality, growth of government and impact of modern liberalism are combining with synergistic effects upon American society, he makes the immediacy of this threat surprisingly clear. This work challenges generally accepted aspects of society as its essence examines America from a historical, philosophical and political perspective. The concluding analysis of synergistic impacts draws on this earlier discussion and relates choices that America must ultimately decide upon. America's DA(c)nouement presents an opportunity to assist in these choices by reviewing what America once was, what it is now, and what its future holds.
