Hello, and welcome to a new year of Past Tense!
This year, we will meet over lunch, one Friday a month, at the
Huntington Library.
We have tried to streamline announcements, RSVPs, and precirculating
papers through the new website,
http://past-tense.org, but I did want
to alert you to our events and calendar:
First event is Friday October 28 -- RSVP now for lunch and to receive
the reading. I am presenting "This is Not How My Book Starts: Looking
Back at Writing and Framing"
Please join us!
See you next Friday,
Adam
