The daily sessions will be conducted “seminar style,” with many opportunities for participant interaction. Please bring writing material or a laptop if you wish. Internet service is not available in Alamo Hall, but if you need it for research, the hotel has high speed access.
We will provide each of you with a workshop reader, but some of the texts that the workshop scholars will be using you might want to acquire ahead of time. They can be purchased on-line at web-based book sellers or locally at most book stores. Most can also be found at your local libraries. I have also attached a “beginning” bibliography of texts and sources related to our topic.
