PhDidn't: A Visual Summary of the Last Forty-Some Months


My last post was 3 years, 8 months, and 15 days ago on the eve of a PhD program in English Education. 

Seven semesters later, that stubborn story-obsessed banshee of a fiction-based conscience wouldn't. Shut. Up. 

While I still value and miss my fellow doctoral colleagues and PhDivas, as well as my newfound appreciation for higher education, I could not be happier that I PhDidn't. 

And now...
