Ebony, you're a lucky girl. I'm familiar with this program (mostly 
through reading Poets & Writers) and it's supposed to be fantastic.

Eh. Sore spot. I've known since I was about 12 that I wanted to write 
fiction, but now I'm not so sure. I *did* write an essay about not-
writing, and I got that published on Salon awhile ago. Is that what 
they mean by "meta-fiction"--writing about not writing? <g>
