Al Vezzetti's Celebration


Al's Celebration




Al Vezzetti has been the head of San Dimas Writer's Workshop
He is moving on, but will be in touch.




Beautiful Caroline Corser will be our new head of the workshop.  She was a professor in English at a college in Bakersfield.  She majored in Linguistics, so she is very detail in editing.  I appreciate all her explanations and comments.  She also speaks, reads, and writes Spanish.



Our Chaucer expert, Dolores Cullen, talking about Canterbury Tales from her point of view.



                  Al looks happy leaving San Dimas.  I look sour.  I'm not chewing lemon.




Ray in the back read his essay.  It was about generational gaps and well written.   I hope he finds a good publication to show the essay.

                                             

Frank Kohoutek made this.  He is multi talented.

Thank you for your comment. As you see less and less of my post, I think I'm slowing down. But the workshop group members are keeping it up. They give me energy.

It looks like a festive celebration, Keiko. It's nice that you have a great group that gives you energy.

I like your shirt. It reminds me of confetti.

I recognize Dolores from RR. I remember her Chaucer enthusiasm!

Hi Rebb,

Thank you for your comment. Yes, that's Dolores. She is still writing on Chaucer and answering to our questions. They are all the source of inspiration.

Ashok,

I have no idea. I just do things minimum and go with the flow. If things get complicated, I just won't touch it. Please consider it that I'm simplifying my life!
