"There are so many subcultures out there, so many stories, so many interpretations of contemporary life." writing teacher Michael McColly told us last week.

"[My students] must write with more clarity and purpose, more sensitivity and compassion because they are writing about other people's lives."

Tonight, (June 1st, 2006, in case you missed the down there at the bottom) at 7pm, Michael McColly will be reading at Blue Stockings in New York City, exploring his connection with yoga and writing, while promoting his new memoir.

I'll be there, and I'd love to see you too...

Well said, but i think the most important fact in this...is that maybe they will CREATE lives... This is one of their hardest jobs, in my opinion.
