My high school writing class attended this twice. If I didn't have so many plans for that time of year, I'd be tempted to attend. I've never seen/heard Naomi Nye read and I'd like to.

Yes, you should go. You have months to save and plan ahead. Bring a friend so you can cut costs for travel and hotel expenses.

Yes. Yes. Yes.
