Hi Alison, Sorry for the delay in my response - I don't check my SheWrites profile often enough, apparently. The best way to get in touch with me is through our OpEd Project website, or to me directly at katie@theopedproject.org. Look forward…

Katie, I'm sure this is a very tacky use of the comment wall, but we're interested in bringing you to the College of Charleston this school year to do an op ed workshop with our faculty. What's the best way to get in touch with you…

July 26, 2009 from 10am to 5pm
