Synopsis:
Chaperoning Grad Nite at Disneyland… Spending eight hours in the Prospective Juror holding room… Reading AP exam essays for fifty-six hours… Detoxing from an addiction to prescription narcotics… Travelling 7000 miles to present a paper at a literary conference in Antwerp, Belgium… In this collection of narrative and critical essays, Ryan M Blanck explores the “irony of the banal” in these situations and others. Influenced by the writing style of David Foster Wallace and heavily footnoted, Supposedly Fun Things… offers candid reflections on some of life’s most ordinary – and extraordinary – events.
About the Author: Supposedly Fun Things… is Ryan’s third book in a rather eclectic collection of writings. He has written two books for teens on the topic of entertainment and media consumption. He has also written a number of articles for several faith-based online and print magazines. And he served as editor for a book on business management and a multi-volume collection of poetry. For his day job, Ryan is a high school English teacher and creative writing instructor. When he’s not teaching or writing, Ryan enjoys watching movies and classic TV shows, playing Legos with his kids, and the often-misunderstood sport of curling. He lives in Southern California with his wife and two daughters.
