Just something short, Carol. One time, years ago (in New Orleans) Marty Priola read about half a Cormac McCarthy book. I was taking a nap in my room, so I missed it.

Carol | 7657 comments I was thinking maybe one of Ken Craft's poems, since he can't attend.

Melissa (melissaharl) | 1455 comments This looks fantastic, Jane! Sorry again that my plans from way back last December make it impossible for me to attend.

If my teaching schedule permits next fall, and North Carolina repents its recent ways with regard to a welcoming environment, I will do my best to attend next year in Asheville. I joined this group in the fall of 2007, just around the time the CR convention was last there!

Melissa, Asheville is bubble of sanity in the craziness that is NC right now. And by 2017, we're hoping the state will be a sea of blue.

Please, please, Sara. It's not big, but it's so fun.

Melissa (melissaharl) | 1455 comments I can attest to how great visiting Asheville can be! Thanks to Sherry & Tom, in large part.
