 Wanted:
High school creative writing students who'd like to
help my college fiction-writing students extend
their concept of a writerly community by
participating in an online chat or MOO or MUDD or
whatever. We can negotiate the subject and type of
discussion. (For instance, we might ask them to
chat about how they get started writing a story or
discuss a particular story they've all
read...whatever.) Please call me
(951-4112/231-8446) or e-mail me (lnorris@vt.edu)
to talk it over.
