We are slowly setting the table for the fall. There was no room on the table last year for Movie Talk, it seemed. But it is becoming clear that Movie Talk is going to be a huge piece for the upcoming year. The category has been created and some articles are already there.
Links to Dr. Hastings work are floating around. In June Diane sent this one, just another important piece of the puzzle for those of us who will be exploring MT this year. It is well worth a look:
