Bigass MUST-READ thread. (Click through, scroll *all* the way up and read the WHOLE thing. Worth it.)
Anyway: here's to my students. They took it seriously, they argued it out, and they came up with something that I doubted at first, but ended admiring more than any system I've designed on my own.

Goodnight from Petra Briers, fiercely praying to St. Benedict to stop the Weir Witch’s bones ever drifting together again. Goodnight from Rosie Mundell, waiting for the birds to stitch dawn to the dark sky with their urgent songs and end a night filled with tears. Goodnight from Hookland.

I usually try to get out for one writing retreat a year, even if it's just taking the RV to a campground. Not sure that's going to happen this year, though. Maybe I can sit in the RV in the driveway and pretend I'm camping?
