Exhale
I'm in! That is, I received an offer of admission to an incredible MFA program this morning by phone. Admission + a full ride for two years. I don't want to say more than that before I hear from the remaining schools and decide (or have decided for me) where I'm going to go. Suffice it to say I feel as though I'm living someone else's life today.

Congrats Ginger! And the full ride part should help with making a transition.
This is very nice news!

Ginger, I plan to be in P-town the week of July 8th. :) I may or may not get the grant I've applied for, but now that I've reserved a spot in a workshop I don't think I could bear to cancel, so if I don't get the grant I am just going to max out the good ol' credit card and pay it off eventually! It would be great to meet you.
