The Other Acclaimed Horror Writer: Peter Straub, writer of seventeen horror novels including Ghost Story, will give a reading in the Molnar Recital Hall tonight at eight. Straub was supposed to do this a year ago, but had to reschedule. If you’re free tonight, go see it. Horror writers in person > Thirsty Thursdays.
RIP Frog: For those who have been at Longwood for a while, a good friend recently passed away. Will Pettus, an ’06 alumnus, died this week of a heart attack while in Cumberland Gap, Kentucky. If you knew Will and would like to pay your respects, go here. We’ll remember Will as an educator and an outdoorsman. He smiled a lot, knew how to hang out, and he liked overalls. There aren’t enough people like Will, and we’ll miss him.
HEADLINE HEADLINE HEADLINE: We would just like to say that we think it’s pretty awesome and quite fitting that the rugby headlines in the Rotunda ARE IN ALL CAPS RAHHHHHHHHHH.
Big. Ass. Website.: If you haven’t already noticed, you no longer have to include WordPress when typing in the name of this website. Just type longwoodhole.com
ALSO: We’re now accepting artwork submissions. Photos, sketches, paintings, Paint and iPhone doodles, comic strips, etc. Submissions do not have to pertain to Longwood. It just needs to be weird, funny, interesting, or a combination of all of these characteristics. A black and white photo of an old person’s wrinkled-ass hands does not, in our opinion, fit into those categories. But if the wrinkled-ass hands are flicking us off, well, we would certainly publish that!
