Mark Watman holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Writing and Literature from the Bennington College Writing Seminars. Prior to joining the teaching profession, Mark held numerous odd jobs including stints as a bartender, a used bookstore manager, a blueberry picker, and a political campaign manager. As a poet and non-fiction writer, Mark's writings have appeared in numerous national publications. Currently he is in the process of revising a new manuscript of poems The Virtuosity of Go and has just started a collection of essays on the Black Mountain Poets. Mark has also taught literature and writing courses at a variety of liberal arts colleges including Franklin Pierce College, Keene State College, Colby-Sawyer College and Granite State College.
"Sharing a discourse about the written word is always a challenging and fruitful experience, but here at Granite State College the adult students possess a wealth of experiences and insights that prove especially valuable in an online learning community. Much like the language itself, we as writers are continually evolving and growing. Fostering this growth through the written word (through postings, email, and real time chat) seems more than just worthwhile. In an online classroom the emphasis is always turning back to the reason we are here: to focus on the written word through the written word. It is as valuable an experience in teaching and learning as I can imagine."
