    ERASING SID MURPHY by Colleen Clayton-Dippolito Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Fine Arts in the Northeast Ohio Master of Fine Arts Consortium (NEOMFA) Erasing Sid Murphy Colleen Clayton-Dippolito I hereby release this thesis to the public. I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access. I also authorize the University or other individuals to make copies of this thesis as needed for scholarly research.

Kasvinsky, Dean of School of Graduate Studies & Research Date ABSTRACT Erasing Sid Murphy is a young adult novel. It is the story of a tenacious 16-year-old girl named Cassidy Murphy who experiences a traumatic incident on a school ski trip. Suffering from post- traumatic stress, she develops an eating disorder. She eventually gets the help she needs and is able to face her various issues. Chapter One It's four in the morning and I'm sitting on my porch steps waiting for my friends. The streetlight casts a pale glow over my yard and I'm so exhausted that the snow is starting to shape- shift into an enormous feather bed and soft cotton sheets. I should go back inside where it's warm and wait by the window but I'm more tired than I am cold so I guess I'll just stay where I am, hunkered down like a frozen gargoyle.

  • ASCAP/BMI Comment
    Stuart Rosen Senior Vice President General Counsel November 20, 2015 Chief, Litigation III Section Antitrust Division U.S. Department of Justice 450 5th Street NW, Suite 4000 Washington, DC 20001 Re: Justice Department Review of the BMI and ASCAP Consent Decrees To the Chief of the Litigation III Section: BMI recently alerted its community of affiliated songwriters, composers and publishers to the profound impact 100% licensing would have on their careers, both creatively and financially, if it were to be mandated by the U.S. Department of Justice. In a call to action, BMI provided a letter, one for songwriters and one for publishers, to which their signatures could be added. The response was overwhelming. BMI received nearly 13,000 signatures from writers, composers and publishers of all genres of music, at all levels in their careers. Some of the industry's most well- known songwriters added their names, including Stephen Stills, Cynthia Weil, Steve Cropper, Ester Dean, Dean Pitchford, Congressman John Hall, Trini Lopez, John Cafferty, Gunnar Nelson, Lori McKenna, Shannon Rubicam and Don Brewer, among many others. Enclosed you will find the letters, with signatures attached. On behalf of BMI, I strongly urge you to consider the voices of thousands of songwriters and copyright owners reflected here before making a decision that will adversely affect both the creators, and the ongoing creation of, one ofAmerica's most important cultural and economic resources. Vert truly yours, Stuart Rosen 7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10007-0030 (212) 220-3153 Fax: (212) 220-4482 E-Mail: [email protected] ® A Registered Trademark of Broadcast Music, Inc.
