Happy Birthday, Dashiell Hammett!  Thank you for your prose.

Congratulations to UNL English Ph.D. student Carrie Walker!  Carrie won a Fulbright fellowship to Jamaica for her project, "Letter Writing, Gender Equity, and Human Rights."  Carrie is a terrific writer who's committed to transnational peace and justice, and I'm personally grateful to her for turning me on to the great book Mother to Mother by South African novelist Sindiwe Magona.  Thanks, Carrie!  Make a wonderful difference, and have a wonderful time!

Congratulations to Arden Eli Hill, whose lovely essay "Telling People," which evolved in our 852A class last fall, will appear in Western Humanities Review in a special issue on adaptations. The piece is about the writer's happy adaptation to a partner's multiple personality disorder, which is sometimes called plurality.

If you're lucky enough to be in Austin, you can go to Rich Yañez's reading on Saturday, May 28 at 5 p.m. at Resistencia Bookstore.  It should be great!  Happy reading, Rich!

Hi Joy! I've been meaning to tell you that I have a copy of the latest issue of Strand magazine, which has a previously unpublished Dashiell Hammett short in it. I haven't read it yet--saving it until I've read all the others--but I'll share the magazine with you when I'm finished!
