A first for me, posting on Sunnydale Press:
According to a poster at the BC&S:
"I just wanted to let you know that Jane Espenson is going to be at Ball State University this Friday doing a talk called "Writing Buffy". She will be in the Arts and Journalism building from 12:00-12:50 in room 175.
The biography attatched to her visit announcement claims that she has co-written "End of Days", the final episode of Buffy.
BSU is in Muncie, Indiana, about an hour away from Indy and two from Dayton.
If you can make it, do go. It would be great to have a large showing of support for Jane."
I love listening to Jane talk about writing during her Succubus Club appearances. She's funny, interesting, and smart.
