>Sewanee Writers’ Conference

>

The Sewanee Writers’ Conference begins today in Sewanee, TN. I wish I were there! I remember the excitement of driving to the University of the South–about an 8-hour trip for me–and arriving in the afternoon to check in and get settled into the dorm, then running into old friends, assembling for the first dinner and the first reading (I hear that Jill McCorkle is kicking things off tonight).

I hope everyone has a great time. I’m sure you will!
