Since we have an unusually visible table at the AWP book exhibit this year
and are trying to do what we can to promote the program, it occurs to me
that it *might* be a good idea to have the most recent book from each of
our permanent faculty on display at our table and identified as such. The
table is only so large, so there's limited room since we especially want
to promote and sell the MU Press books, but having had this rare moment of
promotional insight earlier today I ran the idea by Dana who said that it
might even be possible to have a few copies of said MU faculty books for
sale, receipts kept to the side of the MU Press sales. I'm not sure about
the latter idea but still like the former, and thought I'd run them both
by you. Dana's thought was that if the faculty concerned would bring five
copies of their book to her in Bachelor by next Tuesday (she leaves on
Wednesday for AWP) she would bring them up with her with the MU Press
books. We'd put a little sign under that corner--"Recent publications by
Miami creative writing faculty" or some such.

It might be a terrible idea. Let me have your thoughts.
