I love being a living, breathing part of the CSM Community.  I discovered this photo on the College's website.  It was taken in October, 2012 during the President's Lecture Series when President Michael Claire featured creative writers from his own faculty.  It was a really wonderful event on so many levels.  Here from left to right: President Michael Claire, me, Joyce Luck, Autumn Newman, Jay Lehmann, Roberta Reynolds.   I LIKE this.
