another student in Facts and Arguments

Student Nancy Figueroa wrote the other day, to say that another of her essays would be appearing in the Globe.
I read the story at your place in May, worked on it, including some of the suggestions you made and then I forgot about it.  Three weeks ago I remembered it and sent it off to The Globe. They liked it! It will be my third piece in F & A since I finished your class!
I'll look forward to seeing you September 16 for the launch of True to Life.

 It's a lovely piece, Nancy. Congratulations.


When our dishwasher broke down, my son and I were doing the dishes together. He suddenly had a lot more to say to me than usual. (Jori Bolton For The Globe and Mail)

I’ve always been an extrovert. How could it be possible my child would never talk?

    Very good ... really enjoyed reading that. I've never owned a dishwasher. Many of my favourite times with my mom or brother or sister or even father was when we did the dishes together. Thanks, Nancy. Lani
