As promised, here’s Watson (P’Man) Sriboonwong’s story from the new Literacy Review. He’s in Professor June Foley’s Advanced Writing class which meets here on Fridays. The Literacy Review is an annual journal of writing from adult literacy programs throughout New York City. Edited by NYU Gallatin students, the book is distributed at a celebration that includes readings by the newly published writers. Read P’Man’s story below and take the quiz afterwards to test your understanding:
