Dear Professor Dayal,
Tracy Ferrell, who is a new faculty member in
your dept. and my very good friend, forwarded me
your call for papers.  I just wanted to let you
know that you should expect a proposal from me
for this panel by the end of today.  I'm really
excited about this panel and have been trying to
work on just one abstract. 

I teach (non-western) World Lit/Postcolonial
Studies and Film Studies at Murray State
University.

Best,
Priya
