What an amazing way to celebrate such an incredible writer. Now to dig out my copy and reread and remember how revolution it felt at the time. Thanks Susie, and DO post photos of the red dress!!

I'm going to scream for 15 minutes because I can't be there for this. Thank you for honoring an amazing writer, and for the wonderful photos you share.

Oh Susie, I’m so glad that you’re doing this!!! I wish I could teleport there!

Last week, I heard from Mississippi Quarterly—my article with the alternate endings will be in their next issue. I’ll keep you posted!
