I am positively thrilled to announce that I will be a faculty member at the biannual Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop at the University of Dayton in Dayton, Ohio.  The workshop is designed for humour and human interest writers. If you're such a writer, and you're looking to get published, I hope you'll join me, along with the amazing faculty members who will be presenting.  Registration opens December 1st, 2009, and if history is any teacher, it will sell out quickly, so mark your calendars.
