So it's been I while. Things are going quite well with school (MFA "at" FDU), work (new job!) and such. I'm posting of course because I'm feeling self-indulgent and just a little melancholy. I received my letter today about Wroxton which I was quite excited about at first but then of course it got me thinking about Edgehill and that amazing ( Read more... )

I've been starting all these new stories in the attempt of finding that "it" piece that will finally get me accepted into an MFA Creative Writing Program ( Read more... )

For the past 25 minutes he's had me going in circles BACKWARDS in the local high school parking lot so could I get a grasp on the complexities of parallel parking. Pppsttsfdjhdgf! Yeah. All I've gotten from it is a serious case of ( Read more... )

Happy Fourth to all you Americans out there!
