shortly after registering my attendance at the Watermarks Paper conference this evening i was slightly stunned to see this
on pp 42 of CAN Journal, Cleveland.
for the record
i am not an employee of the University of South Australia [nor do i receive or desire any financial support from them]
and i would not describe myself [professionally] as a blogger
i maintain a blog principally for the benefit of past [and future] students and friends who want to keep up with developments without having to exchange emails
presently my income is derived from teaching, writing [books and magazine articles], costume design, exhibition work and commissions. while that may change, professional blogging is not on the bucket list.
stunning, india. how weirdly words get snaggled and garbled...does anyone check their sources anymore?

Oh dear. That is disappointing at the very least. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteweird, really. it's a curious whirled.
DeleteThis reporter definitely didn't do their homework and in the meantime, made a tremendous snafu. We all know you are our rock star. Thank you for a wonderful workshop and I am coveting my beautiful book that came from these past two days.
ReplyDeletethanks Patti, those books turned out rather beautifully, i thought.
Deletebest wishes

The writer sees you as "university" level in quality of teaching perhaps?
ReplyDeleteperhaps the writer sees you as teaching "university/researcher" level?
ReplyDeleteits just like a game of chinese whispers...
ReplyDeleteor the fun you can have when you take a phrase and chase it through a few Google translations and come full circle to the original...
DeleteNot very nice, I agree!
ReplyDeleteSounds republican to me, hardly a speck of truth....lol
ReplyDeleteYikes! Someone didn't do their research.
ReplyDeleteHey, let's give you a black belt in eco dyeing and a PhD in bloggery! We all know that you are wonderful!
ReplyDeletePerhaps you underestimate the reach of your blog, India!
