2 October 1981

Dear Nell,

I had a hundred things to thank you for as a result of Yaddo and kept waiting for things to cool as I'd have a long letter time but the post Yaddo season has been as pressured as the spring was. I wanted to ask your permission to use you [[strikethrough]] again [[/strikethrough]] as a reference for Guggenheim, & again Yaddo & MacDowell. Sent the first two in this week & wrote Curtis today. It takes me from August to May to keep my daughters "covered" for summers so I begin early. I also applied for NEA grant and felt the application & slides looked very good.

I found a studio between Grove & Floyd in the Fan - a second story place over a two car garage
