A Crazy Good Semester

OK, I wasn’t really planning to put bad writing up every day, especially with all kinds of crazy publication and contest news going on—check it out, folks, what a run y’all had this semester! Keep it coming.

And I must add, of the 300 friends, families, and colleagues I contacted for the Avon walk, far and away the most help came from you all. Maybe writing begets generosity, or it is simply that you are terrific people (you all are). Anyway, thank you. I’ll continue to post a new sonnet every day until May 2, so check out the Avon site, if you’d like.

Hey, and the Folger Shakespeare Library is throwing its Shakespeare’s Birthday Open House party tomorrow (Sunday April 26) from noon to 4 pm. It’s a kid-friendly event; I’m so there—hope to see some of you . . .
