That was FAST

lydamorehouse I sent in a proposal to the Loft on May 13 for upcoming classes. I happened to check Submittable for something else and discovered it was already rejected. Apparently, my being "talked to" by my boss was not enough to satisfy powers that be (namely a certain summer session "instructor.")
This is going to be a MASSIVE financial hit for my family.
So, now my question is: how I do this? Is there a market for classes by me? I don't know. If so, what format would they even take? Have any of you done this sort of thing--just taught a class that you ran out of your home or a library or online?? I'd love some advice (and/or sympathy.)
I feel like the biggest irony is that when it all first came to light in the summer, Shawn wanted me to just tell them I wouldn't co-teach, to break my contract. Can you imagine? I mean, I guess this has just turned into a slow death and that would have been a quicker way to get the same result, but damn.
This sucks.
