I teach in a creative writing program and have read hundreds of poems written by students who are on the spectrum.

Dear friends, it's too late for next year, but please don't use AI for statements of purpose for writing programs. (Or anything.)

Here's a thing you should know:
I've been working with extremely adept writers, many of them positively dripping in prizes, for decades, and they don't always get punctuation right, and they don't always know what nonplussed means, and they can't always tell the difference between lead and led.
I’m so excited about this stellar review in Publisher’s Weekly for David Gessner’s latest, The Book of Flaco!
We are hiring for two Assistant/Associate Professor positions! Details and requirements are posted at jobs.uncw.edu/hr/postings/... (Fiction) and jobs.uncw.edu/hr/postings/... (Poetry).
Please share with qualified and interested folks, or any appropriate group.
Despair is understandable but not sustainable.
I wonder which bromance will implode first — RFK or Musk?
Whenever I’m tempted to turn on cable news I watch an episode of Friends instead. Highly recommend.
Since 1987, my life has been the wait between Stephen McCauley novels. So excited this one has landed!
Oh Word. What did contractions ever do to you?
