Retreating

Posted by Robin Abrahams May 5, 2008 08:17 AM

I will be at a writers' retreat this week, hoping to pull Mind over Manners into semi-final form. This is a real retreaty kind of retreat, which means no internet access! I've got a couple of posts scheduled to publish, but I won't be able to moderate comments or respond to e-mail.

I will go somewhere with WiFi to chat at noon on Wednesday and will mod any comments I've gotten and put the transcript up as soon as the chat's done. I hope to cyber-see you there!
