Fall is for Writing!
Ok, so I haven't been able to secure a decent location for a writing class, BUT...I have been busy! I am on the planning team for WORDSTOCK and it's coming up! If you are a Word Nerd, like me, you should check it out. October 6-9. Click the Red Chair below for info!
In other news, I will soon be contributing Craft Columns for LitReactor, a new writing site coming out October 1, 2011 from the folks that brought you The Cult, Chuck Palahniuk's fan site and writing site.
