Andrew Swerlick

Home Town: Atlanta, GA
Majors: Creative Writing & Math
What are your career plans? I'm looking to either do something with journalism or arts administration. Eventually, though, I'd like to be able to write full time.
Your senior thesis topic (if applicable): Androids
What is your favorite book or author and why? I'm a big fan of Terry Pratchett when I'm looking for pure fun. When I want something more serious and literary, I like Zadie Smith, Salinger, Faulkner, and O'Connor. I'm a big fan of Southern Lit in general.
Your favorite music or movie: Anyone who has not heard Josh Ritter is missing out on the next Dylan.
What is your favorite place to study? My room, with my music.
Your favorite Atlanta restaurant: I don't do restaurants much. I'd rather cook for myself. It's more fun.
What is your most frequent grammatical error? Using an apostrophe when I shouldn't and not when I should. Those things mess me up.
What is your biggest grammatical pet peeve? Unclear usage of the word "this." One of my high school teachers drilled it into my head that you always have to use "this" with a noun.
