A Summer Course at The Venerable Chautauqua Institution
Where: The Chautauqua Institution, Chautauqua, NY
When: Monday, July 12th, 2010 at 1:00 pm
This summer, I will once again have the pleasure and privilege of teaching a week-long writers’ workshop at the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, NY. The dates of the course will be July 10th through 17th; it’s an advanced fiction workshop, focusing on verisimilitude. If you’ve never been to Chautauqua, it’s a kind of paradise for brainiacs, readers, educators, spiritually-minded folks, and all those who prefer engagement with their fellow humans to watching television. Please come join me!
Various good Thomas Israel Hopkins news
Thomas Israel Hopkins, keeper of the famous Mimeograph 2.0 Paradigm, has two new stories out in journals: “The Man in The Moon Is A Lawyer” in the Indiana Review’s Issue #31.2, Winter 2009 (so new, it doesn’t even appear to be listed on their website yet), and “Sleepwalking,” in Quick Fiction’s Issue #16—which has, on its cover, an illustration of a small boy, brown haired & brown eyed just like the author’s son, wearing a stripey shirt (as said boy often is), and performing one of that child’s favorite activities: drawing a turtle. Can this be a coincidence? Well, I suppose it can. But I’m still quite proud.
