Thanks

I just want to thank everyone at the BWP last year for helping me grow as a writer and teacher. Now that I'm teaching full time at VSU, I've used so much of the material that I first read/experienced with the BWP. For instance, just this the past week, my students read Anne Lamotte's "Shitty First Drafts." They loved it! They can relate to Lamotte, and she makes them laugh. Though I may not post on here often, I've kept up with the posts because they bring back a bit of that "summer camp" feeling.

Teaching full time is both harder and more rewarding than I ever dreamed. I know I wouldn't be staying afloat if it weren't for the help of my friends from BWP 2007.
