I can now share with you the event I have been waiting to celebrate: I got a new job!
I will be moving to a new university, leaving an amazing institution that has been a home to me for years. It is bittersweet, to be sure. But, I am excited. It will be a fine new challenge, a move ripe with opportunity to do the work I love, writing and teaching writing.

What have you been celebrating lately?
