a new term, with new plans

Hello, reader friends.

It's nice to be back on the UB Blog for summer. Although I am not taking classes this summer, I will be thinking of UB all the time.

This past year... Wow. I met a lot of amazing new people, and learned a lot of amazing new things. Being at UB is a delight for me, and promises to keep getting better.

This summer I will be in and out of Baltimore. Thanks to the generosity of the School of Communications Design, I will be able to spend a fair amount of time out on the road, doing research for a writing project, and I suspect that from time to time I will be blogging from the mountains of North Carolina or Tennessee, the battlefields of Virginia and Maryland, and other places as well.

That said, I look forward to hearing about everyone else's summer also. I almost wish I were taking summer classes just so I could see my friends (not to mention make more progress on the path to my MFA...), but I expect I'll be down at the Starbucks and XS every half hour anyway.

Here's hoping you're all having an excellent summer so far!
