[Cwgrad-announcements] Practice Pitch Session

[cwgrad-announcements at lists.ucr.edu]

Dear John,

Good luck with your Pitchfest-- It sounds like a great idea.

Could you please send an email out to our grad students asking if anyone 
would be willing to volunteer on Saturday, Jan. 21st for an hour (from 11 
am to noon) to sell books written by some of our Creative Writring faculty, 
following an alumni event (reading) that we're presenting that day?

This alumni event will take place in Rm. 1500 HMNSS, and, actually, the 
volunteer would only need to be present from 11:45 to about 12:15 for the 
book selling.  I'm hoping to give the volunteer free copies of several of 
the faculty books as remuneration for this work.

Many thanks,
Maurya
