Dear Eric,
Excellent copy-writing, I think. Thank you.
It doesn't really matter, but I'd guess Lisa Robertson is not a very familiar name to our intended audience. Sorry I was otherwise busy throughout this process.
David

Poets, do you want to add a fourth poet to the recent visitor list?

Kay, I believe, should no longer be on the list.
I also want to add Jaimy Gordon (as the reigning National Book Award Winner) to the fiction list, so maybe add a 4th poet, or we need to cut one of the other fiction writers (all male so far)

Thanks Jody. Here's a potential edit to play with -- fewer words might be better -- what do you think? (Btw is Kay still considered to be on CW faculty? maybe she should be cut from the faculty list)
