two essays

I have to post links to two wonderful essays:

I love Victoria Patterson's "Writer Duck," up now at Literary Mama. (It was also the first essay I worked on as a Literary Mama editor, so, well, there's that.)

And then this wonderful short-short, "July 3rd," by one of my lovely students just won honorable mention in MinnPost's Short-Short contest. I swell with pride. Way to go, A.D.!
