Here is a little essay I recently wrote. You might find it interesting because of the ChatGPT comments at the end. I`ve been having ChatGPT read everything that I have written in my adult life–going back to my dissertation and early professional papers, all the way through to my latest essays. I asked ChatGPT to analyze my writing style and to point out patterns. It decided that it was going to write an essay, “Excavating the Author: Fifty Years of the Writing of Murray McClellan”. Self-indulgent I know, but, for me, this passes the Turing Test.

As a retired teacher who has fled the US and is now living in Spain, and as someone who has until now eschewed most forms of social media, I am belatedly beginning to create an online presence. To that end, I am using this WordPress website to archive some of my miscellaneous non-academic writing. I hope that some of my friends and former colleagues may enjoy this collection, which consists mainly of political editorials, light-weight essays, and silly poems. I also post here the latest version of my US History textbook, Key Moments in American History. View all posts by murraymcclellan
