![]() It's New Year's Eve, the last day of 2023, I'm in Princeton, North Carolina and about to publish my new website. This is a variation on a theme, a much-loved theme, one that first inspired me in an old Victorian house in Bristol, Connecticut, when I met Gary and Gail Provost and the Writers Retreat Workshop. You can look at the page on Gary, Gail, and WRW to see the history. For now, I will simply say that my love for both of them knows no bounds, though Gary has been gone since 1995. I made the decision to teach the workshop materials once again, not in the original 10-day format, but once a week for 10 weeks. I'm curious to see how it will be different (and it will), and how it will feel to teach it again after shutting down the 10-day version in the first year of the pandemic. Because it's not residential, it's much less expensive, and I want to see how it goes before I commit to doing it on a regular basis. In the meantime, I was able to keep my original blog archive, and I will post occasionally. No promises on a regular schedule at this point, but I do promise it will be as eclectic as the previous blog posts. By the way, if you don't recognize the reference in the title, that's a song by the late Peter Allen (once married to Liza Minnelli), one of the greatest entertainers it's been my pleasure to see in person. He was full of boundless energy and an inexhaustible love for the audience and singing his songs for them. You might recognize a few of them: Don't Cry Out Loud, I Honestly Love You, and Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do). Thanks for visiting, and enjoy, Doc Comments are closed.
