More #SHUWPF Residency Photos

We're almost done with the weeklong Writing Popular Fiction residency at Seton Hill (graduation is tomorrow).  My photography has been sad and sorry, but here are some of the surviving shots I've managed to take.  Highlights in this batch include various horror authors associated with the program [from Scott Johnson to Stephanie Wytovich and Joseph Borelli] to the great events with our special guests, Sophie Littlefield, Rachael Herron and Juliet Blackwell.

Day 1 of #shuwpf writer’s residency at Seton Hill (plus: a dog)

Scattered opportunities to take photos today.  Of note in this set: + One group who calls themselves "The Troublemakers" (which they are!) is wearing t-shirts that all feature a quote from me  -- my motto (inspired by something I read from Janet Burroway):  "Only trouble is interesting!")  Very sweet to see this!  What a fun -- and interesting -- group. + I've long heard rumors of an adjunct (not from our program) that sneaks a greyhound dog with her into classes on campus.  I think I found the culprit.  The dog is cute, but it should get off my couch!…

Photos – Launch of Jan 12 Writing Pop Fiction MFA residency #shuwpf

Just a few random shots taken during tonight's opening orientation for the writer's residency at Seton Hill.  I was so caught up in conversations and greetings that I regret I neglected to take more photos.  I'll try to get more and post as the week progresses.  Workshops, classes, and thesis presentations will last till next Wednesday.  Tomorrow I teach a course in "Critiquing and Clarity" in addition to a module on pop culture theory, following an early morning discussion of the Mystery genre, using Jo Nesbo's book THE SNOWMAN to focus our discussion.
