> Dear All (and that certainly includes my Co-Director),
> I want to thank all of you who were able to participate in
> Writers Week 2008, especially those of you, faculty or grad
> students, who introduced, moderated, panelled, moved chairs
> and tables and got water and helped Jen and Chuck and me in
> so many ways.  It was a good week.  We had large audiences
> and totals for the days (Poetry Day - 119, Nonfiction Day -
> 268, Diaspora Day - 245, California Noir - 255) in our own
> building, and of course, a huge crowd for Joyce Carol Oates.
> Thanks again for all your help.
> Maurya, I'm very sorry about your ankle, and we missed you.
> My thoughts are with you.
> Alexis, thanks again for all your hard work.
> Amanda, Yvonne, Tiffany, and Eunice, thanks again as well
> for all your preparations.
> Susan Straight

Then this from me:

This was a terrific Writers Week, and most of that credit belongs to  
Susan, to Amanda, to Tiffany and Eunice.  Susan especially managed to  
keep things moving when it looked like everything was about to  
implode, and I'm forever grateful.

Thanks.

Chuck W.
