Thanks, Eric.

Spring plate sounds full./ I'd hope for fall, if possible. I think it's up to fictioneers to decide.

Sorry to be off the grid, but I've been traveling.

Here's what I have going for the spring.

Peter Orner (all funding from Frank Jordan) on January 24th.

Nahid Rachlin--Iranian-American memoirist and novelist, provisionally set
for February 21st, to visit grad creative non-fiction workshop and to
read.

Hugh Sheehy, reading in conjunction with Matt Kunkleman, March 28th.

Christopher Coake, date yet to be fixed, but I was thinking maybe early
April.
