Welcome to the digital Humanities project, AAD Expanded. This page will facilitate the discussion on the development of this project, beginning in the spring of 2019.
Purview
This project aims to create a critical and cultural context around the composition and subsequent reaction to Norman Mailer’s novel An American Dream. It will begin with J. Michael Lennon’s 2004 Norman Mailer's Letters on An American Dream, 1963–1969. Additional interviews, reviews, essays, and miscellany will be added as they are collected, permissions cleared, and digitized.
Access
Participation requires:
- An account on Project Mailer. This cannot be created by users, but must be done by the editor, Gerald R. Lucas. Send him an email requesting an account (please include the username you would like).
- Access to original documents. Original documents are stored on Google Drive. Please request access using your Google account. There will be numerous source documents we will be working with on this project.
To Do
See the to-do list on the talk page for Norman Mailer's Letters on An American Dream, 1963–1969.

Discussion
. . . @Grlucas: Link to my PM Sandbox. Please give feedback when you can and let me know if I have linked this to the wrong location. Thanks! Dmcgonagill/sandbox for PM(Dmcgonagill (talk) 12:43, 30 March 2019 (UTC))
- @Grlucas: My article is ready to be moved from my sandbox to PM. Am I supposed to move it or are you supposed to review it and then move it?--Dillbug (talk) 17:53, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Dillbug: OK, looking good, but it's not quite ready. All citations should be formatted correctly using the citation templates for whatever it is you're citing, like a book or journal article. Simply cut and paste the template and fill in the info for each reference (many can already be found on the site's crit bibliography). Use McKinley's article as a guide. The notice up top does not really make sense, either. Next, you need to convert all parenthetical citations to shortened footnotes. Again, use the McKinley article for your reference. I'll do one or two for you as an example. Finally, I see some typos. Be sure you proof it well. Thanks. (I fixed the beginning for you and gave you some examples to work with.) —Grlucas (talk) 21:25, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
