Huh. I'd like to see that virtual worlds/Asian phil paper also -- not sure I agree with the slugline premise, but that's what a full paper is for.
Way to go on the guest lecturing gig, though! Sounds like that class has a lot going for it. Playing with WoW as a component of the hero's journey also sounds fascinating, partly because one of the reasons I've never gotten into Massmogs, and could never full-on devote myself to MUDs (their logical predecessors) is that they have the images of the hero's journey without any actual journey. Psychological journey here, of course - don't get me wrong, there's a ton of running from one place to another in most Massmogs. Writing might be a way to break that open.
Thoughts on online presence later. Running to not be late to translation gig now.
