Today is the last day of the Columbia Publishing Course. We haven’t had morning classes for most of the week, so I’m on a strict schedule of being asleep by 4am or so, up around noon. We like that.

This afternoon we had our “disorientation,” and tonight is the final Sherry Hour, then a banquet. Then several of us are going to a drag show at Bar d’O before beginning the night’s carnage.

I’ll be staying at Columbia until Wednesday morning, sharing a tiny dorm room with as many people as we can fit in it, enjoying my last few days in New York City.
