  • One of my advisers, Joy Castro, wrote about my capstone oral for my comprehensive exams, which took place at the end of October.
  • I’m officially ABD! Or, as Joy called it in her post, All but done. Yippee!!
  • As part of my residency this past summer is: My poem “Maternal Lineage” is up on the National Park Service’s Herbert Hoover Historic Site website (a residency which was mentioned in USA Today. Wow). There’s an audio file of it too:

  • The amazing editors at Pudding House and Dancing Girl Press are publishing my chapbooks Ghost Girl and My Imaginary, respectfully.
  • A short story I wrote has been accepted for the Fall 2009 Relief Anthology, edited by J. K. Richard. Yeah!

Sometimes when you do research you find stuff that is cool. And sometimes, you find stuff that is really cool. The band The Lonesome Sisters put out a self-titled album in 2006, which includes the song “over the sea” They note:

Chorus Lyrics written by Mrs. L. Matilda Fletcher, found in an 1871 hymnal.

Too cool or what? And the song itself, is lovely.
