Writing and Thinking

in all about me
Brace yourselves for another semi-hiatus: this is the summer of professional development for me, it seems, and so I’m off for another week-long workshop which probably promises few opportunities for blogging, though hopefully I’ll be full of inspiration when I get back.
I leave Sunday morning for a week of “Revolutionary Grammar” at Bard College’s Institute for Writing and Thinking. I’m taking the train up and staying on campus for a week of workshops on teaching and understanding the intersections between writing and grammar. I’m feeling a lot of emotions at once: excited to learn more about a subject I still have difficulties with, a bit anxious at the amount of new people and experiences are ahead, and a bit homesick already when I think of spending another week away from my girls. I’ll be back on Saturday, and if I get a chance, I’ll blog before then.
Otherwise, see you in a week!
