writers here

here in my homeland, many, many wonderful writers have visited over the last few weeks. Poets and editor jim cihlar read from his collection, as did william reichard. Another poet paul guest is up to visit wednesday. Tayari Jones read from her novel The Untelling. And, Dorothy Allison spoke at the lgtbqa history month banquet and gave a public reading the next night. Amazing! And, Naomi Shihab Nye, who I saw read in DC at split this rock in March, will visit next semester. Wow.
