One of my former college professors. Reading at Houston's Indie Book Fest.
After updating him on my happenings, I asked him how teaching undergraduates life went and he said:
"There's a whole new generation coming in..."
"I feel old!" I told him.
"Imagine how I feel," he said.
I never stopped to think how teaching might change for creative writing professors. They get a batch of new world views, philosophies, complaints, every few years. I'd think that would keep him young. Maybe it's just irritating, haha.
Poets Sarah Vap, Dexter L. Booth, and Patricia Colleen Murphy read from their recent work at the Hayden Library on the Tempe Campus. This public reading was followed by a book signing and reception with light refreshments.
Sarah Vap received her MFA from Arizona State University. Vap is the author of six collections of poetry. Her most recent book, "Viability," was selected by Mary Jo Bang for the National Poetry Series, and was released by Penguin in 2016.
Dexter L. Booth earned an MFA in creative writing from Arizona State University. His collection "Scratching the Ghost" was selected by Major Jackson for the Cave Canem Poetry Prize.
Patricia Colleen Murphy, a graduate of ASU's MFA Program in Creative Writing, founded Superstition Review at Arizona State University, where she teaches creative writing and magazine production. Her collection, "Hemming Flames," was selected by Stephen Dunn for the May Swenson Poetry Award.

The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

[Rolling it back and forth inside my hand
Pretending a sound mind that I don’t feel
Watching my fingers as they play and bend
Sensing the gripping of my thoughts of steel]
A marble is my brain. Sometimes I lack
The tight firm grip. And it would roll and fall
While I sit still. I cannot have it back.
I sit and I pretend. I try to call
The glossy marble – that untrue gemstone –
Inviting it to rest inside my skull,
A perfect fitting made of hollow bone.
My brain, bouncing around, is dusty and dull.
I keep it in my hand, and roll it to and fro
I clean it and I hope it fits. The glass is bright, aglow.
(Sonnet by SiRiChandra)
Yedda Morrison invited local poets and EMU faculty to perform her work on stage. Readers include (left to right) Dennis Teichman, Christine Hume, Kathleen Ivanoff, and Carla Harryman.

For our last day of CW we went over some things about publication and how to dicipline ourselves as writers. Behind Ice Bat is a list of things us writers need to keep in mind:
* Time: protect our writing time! We should not let things like phones, internet, and friends/family interrupt our writing time.
*Presents: Its a motivation tool. Like finish 3 pages in the next hour and get yourself a cookie -- or something like that.
* Track writing time.
* Vacation: Genuine relaxation time so you won't get fried. Plus new experiences always help out w/ writing in the long run. =)
We launched the Make My Day diary, a June-to-June Refugee Week diary written by young people who have recently arrived in the UK. The project and event were supported by John Lyon’s Charity, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Arts Council England.
On 20th June we held a celebratory event at the Tricylce Theatre for all those who had taken part in the event.
