I originally created “This Ocean of Texts: The History of Blackout Poetry” as my thesis in partial fulfillment of the requirements for my Master of Arts in English degree from Texas Woman’s University. However, I plan on continuing to grow the website as blackout poetry continues to evolve. There was a lot of things that have not been added to this yet that I am looking forward including.
