I was thoroughly planning to write down names on my preference form for the first time this semester. But, a couple of the names I fully expected to see aren’t there, and more than a couple names I really didn’t expect are there, too. Now I don’t know how I would narrow it down! In the past, I’ve usually gone to residencies without having read work by most of the faculty; this semester, there are only two poets I haven’t read yet. I bet I can fix that before January.
