Bravo! Enjoy the workshop. This reminds me, though, of another New York literary mecca: Yaddo. Is it still a functioning aesthetic enterprise? Way back in the 40s and 50s, as I recall, it was a splendid destination for serious writers and artists (Flannery O'Connor comes to mind). Is it near your neck of the woods?
ReplyDeleteYes, it's in Saratoga. I went a few years ago... the only time I have applied, as it's hard to leave children when one is married to somebody who goes on call frequently. I had a marvelous time, and met some wonderful people, and wrote a book that will be out next year.
DeleteThat title sounds like a line out of Shakespeare. Have a good time!
ReplyDeleteShall do my very best to have a good time, Ms. Lucy!
DeleteIt is strongly iambic, isn't it? Feel free to finish the line... or maybe the sonnet? Or a long, nattering piece of blank verse?
I have opened a document with the very same title and typed it in, shall let you know if it fructifies!
ReplyDeleteI do desire to see your end results,
DeleteAnd read your words of summer's Antioch!
