a face in the crowdLife in The Big Apple is not what it's cracked up to be...(Untitled)- October 20, 2004 workshop This is the second writer's workshop I have taken this year. The first one was a good experience, even though about a third of the students weren't good at giving any sort of constructive criticism. They weren't good at giving any criticism at all.
