At left you see an avatar, Alf Fullstop, preparing to lead a seminar in the virtual Kelly Writers House in Second Life this very night - Thursday, October 29. The poem on the wall, WCW's "Between Walls," is the third of three poems Alf will be teaching. This is our first quasi-formal venture into Second Life with friends of the Writers House. SL gurus we know have built a gorgeous Writers House there, with an Arts Cafe, a living room with a green couch, an upstairs seminar room, a garden. Quite nice. The other night Alf was "in there" and saw wine and cheese on a table in the living room. He learned to "pick up" the cheese and began eating it. Two days later he was back in SL, trying to interact with another avatar, and found that he was still eating the cheese. We need to teach Alf how to put down the cheese.
