Farewell Friends

Hey Y'all,

It's been an excellent year for readings--sometimes yielding an embarrassment of riches--, but another semester is over so it's time to pack it in. Don't be sad. Remember Wallace Stevens, who says "The world is larger in summer."

In the fall, the readings coordinator job expands, as well. Alyssa Knickerbocker and Vanessa Merina, both UW-Madison MFA candidates in fiction, will dazzle you next year as the Program in Creative Writing's readings coordinators! That's right coordinators, plural!

Have a great summer, and check back periodically to see what the program's up to. You know that once September rolls around, you won't want to miss out on anything. Thanks for visiting this blog, and--more importantly--for coming to our many readings and contributing to the vibrant literary community here in Madison.

Be well,
Ryan
