Sorry for not blogging much. In case you don't follow me on twitter, I had a baby, which can really slow down your blogging. BUT:
If you live in or near Indianapolis and you are a high school student (or can convincingly pretend to be one), I'll be teaching a free writing workshop next Monday, February 8th, at the University of Indianapolis. The workshop will be from 4 PM to 5:30 PM at the Wheeler Art Center (1035 Sanders Street # 111 Indianapolis, IN).
If you'd like to come, RSVP to Bryan Furuness: furuness--at--gmail.com
I wish I lived somewhere remotely close to that.

ReplyDelete:(
I'm so jealous! I wish I lived close! :( That's a great opportunity for people who do live there, though.
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous, that would be incredible
ReplyDeleteI live south of Indy but I'm 22, I want to GOOOOOOOOOOOO...
ReplyDeleteI kind of just freaked out. A lot. I need to talk to my mom, but Indy's only 35 minutes away and this is pretty phenomenal.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that would be SO amazing. D:
ReplyDeleteIf you could come and teach writing in London, England, that would be much appreciated. :) I realise this is unlikely to happen in the near future, what with the whole baby thing going on though.
ReplyDeleteCan this be broadcasted live somehow? It's my dream to take part in a writing workshop with you but I have no way of getting to Indianapolis.
ReplyDeleteI live in Martinsville, and I'm a high school student, and it would be totally awesome to go, but I can't make it.
ReplyDeleteDo you have to live in Indianapolis to go? I'll totally fly there.
ReplyDeletedo you suppose its worth it to fly from NY to the university of Indianapolis for this?
ReplyDeleteI kinda wanted to visit anyway
You said that "The workshop will be from 4 PM to 5:30 PM at the Wheeler Art Center (1035 Sanders Street # 111 Indianapolis, IN)."
ReplyDeleteBut U of Indy's site says that it's at 7:30pm at Good Hall which is at the corner of E. Hanna and Otterbein.
Both info is really far apart, which is correct?
I sent an RSVP email, will they email me back to confirm??
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn't in class till 5:20 on Mondays, I would be there, emphatically.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteI live in Greenwood, I might be able to make this.
ReplyDeleteGeography isn't my strong point, I confess, but I'm pretty sure Sweden isn't in or around Indianapolis. I'd be happy if you could tell me I'm wrong.
ReplyDeleteIt's a 4 1/2 hour drive... I'll be there! I'm too old, technically, but I get mistaken for a high schooler all the time. I bet I could slip under the radar.
ReplyDeleteTotally going! See you there! When exciting things happen in Indiana they seem more exciting because nothing awesome ever happens here. YAY!
ReplyDeleteI RSVP-ed =D
I second the question about can we fly in?
ReplyDeleteGosh, I so wish I would be abled to come to that. i live in Ohio, though, so no way I can go. Will you becoming anywhere near Ohio anytime soon, John?
ReplyDelete:( I'm 1 year too young and can't even pass for my current age. So close! And I missed Henry at the live show!
ReplyDeleteI would love to go but unfortunately I live in California
ReplyDeleteI'm in the UK thats a bit too far away lol.
ReplyDeleteI might have been able to blag it as well lol.
P.s. Congratulations on baby arrival ness
ReplyDeleteOh man...I wonder if I can pass as a high school student. Probably not. But I'm not that far. That would be crazy fun.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the baby! :)
I've never been to a workshop. I wish I could go but I live in Canada. Can't you come here? There's lots of snow! Congratulations on baby!
ReplyDeleteI am so driving the three hours! Congrats on the bundle of joy.

I second this question. Which time and place is the right one?
john green has the most adoring commenters ever.
ReplyDeletei am rendered uncomfortable by the lack of mean spiritedness here and must return to youtube comments, preferably the latest Obama attack video, immediately.
John, if blogging is the only thing having a baby slows down, you are Superman.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, this has made me wish I were a teen living in or near Indianapolis, which I never thought would ever cross my mind.
A writing workshop with my favourite author! For people my age! In Indianapolis! ... I live in Birmingham, UK. FML.
ReplyDeleteI wanna hear more about the baby, oh please, tell us, tell us!
ReplyDeleteBelinda
Hahaha I hope your wife had the baby and not you :)
ReplyDeleteBut many congratulations!
