Sree 's email

sree just sent out an email about completing the pigbook, er FACEBOOK for the upcoming class.
This seems to be a symbol of the onslaught of emails and beginning of the roller coaster ride that will start after july fourth weekend.
It is funny having done this run last year and seeing unfold all again. (but I guess at half speed for me , as a PT-er)

summer classes continue to rule, David Blum's class has gone to another level, besides the narrative writing skills, and critique, he has really involved us in the life of a writer. the battles with editors, pitches.
etc.

last week i dumped my auditing of Hugh's mag writing class.. just too much and not right for me.

Hajdu class on Tuesday was something else as well. the class liked my radio work, particularly Phil W. who's work I respect highly, but DH hated it. all constructively and i know it pained him to tell me, ..my re-write is pending, and i have ideas ..that is besides never doing it and dropping out of j-school.. next i need a good op-id topic.
