Outline

This blog will fulfill a handful of duties. First and foremost, it's a place for my essays. Some of these have/will been handed in as papers, some have been published in The Crown, Redeemer's student newspaper, some are political pieces, some are cultural commentary, some satire, and some humourous ones.

Actually, that's all it's a place for. My essays.

The title, Curses and Prayers, is taken from Hey, Nostradamus! a novel by the wonderful Douglas Coupland. A character in purgatory states that the noises in heaven are only prayers and curses. I've found that to be both challenging and comforting, so it seems like an apt title for a blog. And both prayers and curses will grace this blog, to be sure.

Cheers,

Scott William Fairley
