Tessa, I finally went to that community pottery workshop, and I get why you kept recommending it.

You actually went? What changed your mind, Cole?

My coworker bailed, so I went alone. At first, I thought it would be another class where everyone quietly follows instructions.

But it wasn’t?

Not exactly. The instructor had us take turns shaping the same bowl with someone else, and the point wasn’t to make separate pieces; it was to respond to what the previous person had shaped.
