I do, too.

I am slowly collecting data about teens publishing their work. Their main audience is each other, or those slightly younger--kinda cool!

I'd love to do a creative writing plus e-publishing basics workshop at my school, especially since I know of students who would profit enormously from such a project.

However, so far I haven't even been able to persuade the school to let me do a creative writing workshop.

*sigh*

Maybe call it something else, but let the students know what it is?

I remember Maureen McHugh once pointing out that what she needs to do as a writer is sometimes incompatible with what she wants as a reader.

Was so glad I got to see you, however briefly!

And I took notes on the pirate panel, you bet.

That's for sure! But I want to drive out for some Horse Camp before too long--maybe we can do some writing talk then.

Meantime, I scored my copy of the Poems, heh heh, so a win there!
