this is totally unrelated to the post, but it seems as good a place as any to offer congratulations and good luck on the blog--very enterprising and very cool. and now i'll use the privilege of being a gmu mfa alum to offer some officious advice: why didn't i know about the blog until now? how about an announcement on the mfa listserv? not everyone associated with the program passes by robinson a114 or sub I, so throw the far flung alums a frickin bone. in any case, i look forward to watching the blog grow.
thanks for the note
sorry about the poor PR work; we did send out an announcement on the listserv, but that was a while back, maybe in jan or feb?
we'll work on throwing bigger bones
