		<description>Yes, sorry, Randa. I should have been more clear -- the bashing bit was more about what was going on in comments. All in good fun.</description>

		<description>Just to clarify something: I fucking LOVE my workshop and my MFA program. My defense of pat is simply that: a defense of something I love, too. I was simply venting and giving my POV on why pat is underrated. My workshops have been helpful and my classmates are awesome, including the ones that dislike pat. My writing has improved and I've been happy here. So, those who are linking to the pat defense and framing it as "workshop bashing": no, no, no, no, no.</description>

		<description>Coincidentally, I've been doing some thinking about and writing on the workshop process myself.
