Yesterday it came out that Dirty Dancing and Ghost star Patrick Swayze has been diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer.

This is so sad! He's only fifty-five and it is a terminal cancer.

Oh no!!!

My mom has a friend who's obsessed with Patrick Swayze. She's even writing a book about him.

It doesn't say it's terminal... :roll:

It says he's responding to treatment.
Everywhere I go I'm asked if I think the university stifles writers. My opinion is that they don't stifle enough of them. There's many a bestseller that could have been prevented by a good teacher. ~Flannery O'Connor

Yes, but pancreatic cancer is a terminal illness.

Way, way back in the 1988 Presidential election, then Vice President George H W Bush had a phrase he liked to use: "A Thousand Points of Light." It refers to the idea that a community is made up of people who contribute in a thousand, different small ways, but with each helping to illuminate their community. It's a phrase I think about a lot when it comes to YWS. Looking forward, the site will continue to change and grow, but it will always remain a community dedicated to promoting creative writing as a favorite pastime.
