“It’s hard to tell somebody what you mean to say. And that’s an idea that I’m obsessed with. It’s why I write. It’s why everybody writes.”
--Jonathan Safran Foer
I have always wanted to visit Montpelier.. is that weird?
No! You’ll love it!
Victoria, I agree with Jodi–I love Montpelier. And I also love your blog. Thanks for putting Catching Days on your sidebar. I’ve added you to my blogroll, and Little Shavings is our featured blog for January!
The photos are lovely. But I want stories!
Stories, let’s see… Richard McCann’s lecture on Grace Paley’s very short story “Mother” was wonderful, as was Dave Jauss’s on why knowing too much about your character might not be a good thing, I got up 3 mornings and exercised before I went up the hill…
My favorite… ice!
My favorite…sunset over VCFA on my last day.
What a funny sign! That could be a very funny cover and title for a memoir…now that you’re a graduate. Nice moon shot too.
Thanks, Sarah. I thought it was funny too.
Congratulations! I’ve loved hearing about your program here on the blog. Looking forward to hearing more about the end of it, and the things you do with all the time you’ll have now!
Thanks, Cherry. Excited for you too!
Congratulations to you! All the best for you in 2012, Susanna
Thanks, Susanna. And so happy to find new posts from you. Loved the train photos and words.
