Autumn Tea: Nov 3-4

The English Department

Autumn Tea


Tuesday, November 3 and
Wednesday, November 4
English Conference Room
10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on both days

This is a Stone Soup Party: the pot and the water will be there; you provide the good stuff. The table in the conference room will be pushed to one side and covered with a festive cloth. There will be hot water for tea and hot chocolate and the coffee pot will be going. Then, the magic depends on you --

Please bring goodies to share with others, savory and sweet, on one or both days.

The office machines, refrigerator and microwave will be available. It’s fine to bring your lunch. If you can, bring enough to share. Plan to stay awhile and chat.

Write or Die: It's Sweeping the Nation!

Write or Die is a web application that encourages writing by punishing the tendency to avoid writing. Start typing in the box. As long as you keep typing, you're fine, but once you stop typing, you have a grace period of a certain number of seconds and then there are consequences. Monica B. found this.
