CREATIVE WRITING
SOUP OF THE MONTH

When you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, you tell them to subscribe to Swimmer's Ear.
A silly guy
Patty Durell is the most talented writer I know, I can’t wait to send my Swimmer's Ear letters to the library of congress one day (if it still exists by then).
A hopeful United States Voter
Patty captures the girl experience like a Lisa Frank trapper keeper: colorful, a little eerie, but absolutely delightful!
Eleanor K.
Hope smells like the brown thick paper that the notes accompanying Swimmer's Ear are printed on, it reminds me of elementary school coloring and possibility.
Lys G
Patty writes like the notes app was a bestseller: filled with love and brevity.
Chloe L.

Patty's freshmen year English professor, also named Patricia
It's 100% Patty being Patty in an envelope. What more could one want?
