Greetings!

Good Morning creatives! 

Happy Aftermath of Valentines Day! I hope you all are slowly easing your way out of your chocolate induced comas. Whether you had a ooh la la tre romantic night, or conquered homework while drowning your sorrows in bonbons (discreetly raises hand) or angrily chomped down on some celery and carrot sticks because chocolate is for the weak and undisciplined, here we all are again Monday morning on the Junction Blog ready to immerse ourselves in the rhymes and movements of the written word. (Sighs in prose)

Here are some announcements and events that you should all keep in mind:

• Last week February 10th and 11th  kicked off the first official week of Spring Semester Writers Circle hosted by the English Department interns.  Wednesdays @2:30 are hosted by Carina and Thursdays @6:30 are hosted by Joshua. Hope you could all join us this week!  https://www.instagram.com/p/CK9tjKusrCB/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
• The Author’s Reading of “The Prophets” with Robert Jones Jr. ’06, M.F.A. ’08.
