Sad Suitcase
My flights to D.C. got canceled because of the snowstorm, and the alternate flights were all full. My new coat is sad.
Four of the five panelists on our Memoir and Latinidad panel at AWP have been grounded due to snow and ice; only Luis Rodriguez is still hoping to make it there. Go, Luis! (When the wild weather cancellations started coming in, I got an email from him that just said, "Let's do this." Which made me love him more.)
If he does get there, he will be conducting a wonderfully intimate discussion on the topic, with plenty (plenty!) of time for Q&A. Many thanks in advance to Kathryn Locey, who's slated to read my paper for me on the other panel, the one Lorraine López is chairing about women writing spirituality.
Writers, if you make it to D.C., I hope all your events go well!

I have heard of a number of people who have had to cancel, and it is odd to realize that if I had made the decision to go to AWP this year, something I heavily debated with myself, I also likely would have been unable to get there. I am so sorry you won't make it, and also about what happened with your panel.
So...I have to ask. Do you have a picture of the coat?
