I had a really nice birthday weekend (I’m still looking forward to cupcakes today when I get to school). On Friday I had lunch with Siggy and Robin, where we all ended up giving each other presents. Then I went and saw MacBeth.
I’ve also been planning visits to several programs, just to get a feel for their MFA programs. So far it goes like this:
Bowling Green State University October 4th
Virginia Commonwealth University October 8th
IU October 12-14 (for workshop and possible chat with the department head there)
University of Wisconsin-Madison October 23rd
Nothing like cramming it all in to one month! I’m not sure if and when I’ll make it out to Oregon or down to Georgia, so I might just have to see if I could talk with them on the phone or via email.
