Welcome back to
The Thing, where
J.A. Rock and I give away a copy of
Mark Cooper versus America
(available January 28) to one astute reader who keeps abreast of all the Prescott College related stuff we post on our blogs and answers a tricky question on January 24. You can find details
here. We'll be posting texts between the characters, excerpts from Prescott's student newspaper, characters' homework assignments and more!
Today it's all about Mark and Clare, his mum. And it's no surprise where Mark gets his attitude from.
When a boy's bored and lonely and far from home, who does he text?
And what's the one thing worse than a drunk text? A text sent to the wrong recipient.
You guys, check out
J.A. Rock's blog for more texts and fun stuff, and remember to check back here between now and the 24th, since we'll be introducing more characters from
Mark Cooper versus America.
