Washington Bound

I just received the good news that a paper I've proposed for the film panel at this year's MLA conference in Washington, D.C., has been accepted. I've never had a paper accepted to MLA before, so like Mel, I'm practically dancing around the room, as much as I can dance given my complete lack of rhythm. I'll be presenting material from my current book project on time-travel films, focusing primarily on my reading of The Jacket.

Congrats Chuck!

We'll definitely need to have a Herd / blogger get together, since I imagine that a lot of us will be around...

Outstanding!

Thanks, y'all. A Herd/blogger get together would be a great idea, Jason.

I'm late to the game, but add another "congratulations" to the pile...

Ya, let's be sure to get together when you're in DC! Keep me posted when travel plans come around.

Posted by: B at March 27, 2005 9:52 PM

Will keep everyone posted on my MLA plans--sounds like MLADC will be quite a scene. Thanks again for the congratulations!

Hey, the Fesser just got a paper accepted too, so we'll see you in DC, as well as in the ATL before then.

Posted by: cinetrix at March 28, 2005 8:41 PM

Congrats to the Fesser! That's great news!
