Description: It’s a volcano found on the island of Negros, in the Philippines. Why did self choose that name for her blog? Self wanted to give it a name that had some personal connection to herself. (Self used to think the volcano was extinct but a careful reader of her blog told her it wasn’t, that it had in fact resulted in the deaths of two climbers, back in the late 90s.) All right, but who, then, is the writer of this blog? She’s a writer. Not well-known (for which, in a way, thank God. She has a life). She’s just your garden-variety writer, with the usual frustrations. Why is this blog written in the third person? The blog is an experiment in voice. Experimentation not possible when posts are written from the “I.”
