Hi Professors
Hope all is well. I’d love to pick your brains at some point about graduate programs. I think my strongest area as a writer is in creative non-fiction, and I’d love to hear about which programs you think would be good ones for me.
Best,
Margaret

I’m so excited to have found this! Two of my favorite English professors! Juan, I’m so happy you’re headed back to El Salvador this fall, can’t wait to read your updates, and I would love to get together for coffee when you get back. So proud to say I graduated with an English major from Santa Clara! Miss you both.
Best,
Margaret

Just what I’ve been looking for! Had a great experience in a writing workshop for breast cancer survivors. After our wonderful teacher moved out of the area, I’ve been looking for a followup. Thank you for this site! Namaste.
I am so glad you found us! We’ll keep posting our reflections on writing as spiritual practice in the next few months. My friend/colleague Diane will be writing from California and I will be writing from San Salvador. Welcome to our site! Namaste, Juan
Hi Patrice,
Good to hear from you. Writing is a powerful spiritual practice and part of the joy is sharing our writing with others, especially friends like you. Looking forward to more writing conversations.
