A guide to literary terms

To get the week off on a humorous note, take a minute to read through this hilarious list that details the differences between various forms of literature.

The Offutt Guide to Literary Terms

A few favorites:

experimental writing: The result of supreme artistic courage when a writer is willing to sacrifice structure, character, plot, insight, wisdom, social commentary, context, precedent, and punctuation.

poem: Prose scraps.

lyric essay: An essay with pretty language.


I see that smile.
