I had to write a bio for the webpage at my new job, so I thought I would present it here for your amusement. Did I get the proper mix of serious and "Mike?"
BIO
Mike S. DuBose (Ph.D. from Bowling Green State University in American Culture Studies) is a Lecturer in the department who teaches various composition courses. He is the former editor of the now defunct literary journal Stark Raving Sanity, and he has published academic writing in Holidays, Ritual, Festival, Celebration, and Public Display, in the journal Reconstruction, in the Encyclopedia of Capitalism, and forthcoming in the Journal of Popular Culture. Mike's main areas of research interest include 1980s popular culture, critical media studies, and the application of complexity theory to the study of culture; he is combining all three in both a revision of his dissertation into book form for a major American academic press and several research papers in progress. In his spare time, he plays guitar, watches Food Network almost obsessively, participates gleefully in geek culture such as professional wrestling fandom, and stares at his wife in awe. Mike also occasionally writes a non-fiction, non-academic blog called TheMikeDuBose

In Academic writing Topics for essay writing often make a difference to the quality itself in many cases there is a lot of information that is provided on topics that is often overlooked. When a topic is being noticed and the essay has researched information that makes it worth the difference, there is a lot of stuff to learn about. With some essay's and thesis topics that have very little interest in them, it takes a bit more to become motivated to continue doing what is wanted.academic writing
Understanding how to properly and thoroughly research a subject is the key to good academic writing. No matter how gifted the writer may be; academic writing is less about their skill and more about the basic facts.academic writing
