V.V.?? We'll See . . .

[Judith A. Panetta]

Well gee.

I proceed gingerly here, not wanting to misstep and trip, my
heal  accidently brushing the flint that ignites the flame.
(Forgive the metaphor. It's the fall weather and I'm going
to a bonfire tonight. No, really.) But enough.

It's obvious that the key players here are exhausted. And I
write not to offer a vote but encouragement, for the lurkers
as well as the recent participants to rekindle their
enthusiasm for the V-read. Of course this is for purely
selfish reasons, having signed on somewhere in the Zone and
therefore having not the benefit of the full process.
Needless to say, I was looking forward to this new communal
activity. Come now, is there no flicker of interest? No
spark?

Perhaps what we need is a field trip.

For what it's worth, here's my two-cents on the V. issue:
 
I watched GRGR from the sidelines for quite some time, so
when the
opportunity to get in the game with V. arose, I
enthusiastically donned my helmet and signed-up for a
section to host (forgive the football metaphor, it's fall
weather, y'know).

I'm going to relinquish my lil 'ol section of V. for anyone
else who
would like it.  I've taught novels back-to-back-to-back
before, and students get fried after awhile . . . they need
a movie to catch their breath. Why should we be any
different?  Perhaps this list needs a breather.
