Because I cannot keep up with time I hadn’t realized March was coming up so quickly and now we are a day away from rights to Amalia Gladhart’s translation of Angélica Gorodischer’s Trafalgar reverting to the estate. I’d meant to make a fuss a few wee...

Being chronically ill gives insight into how the world will go on when one is no longer part of it. We’ve all moved on from social circles, jobs, schools, cities, towns, countries, and we know that life goes on in those places without us. But to lie...

I was looking for something and came across this note on Travel Light that Jed sent me in September 2005 for the Small Beer newsletter: Travel Light is a book that goes places you never quite expect, even when you’re the one who’s writing it. No, I d...

Good Day,I've had this newletter open all week but been unable to write. There are so many interesting things going — where "interesting" means "fascinating" not " — in the bookish world but the Stupid World keeps interrupting. Imagine voting for som...

Dear Readers,As you probably know (since I'm coming up on my 3-year Long Covidversary — party time!), I have long Covid; noted here as everything about distributing this book will be done slowly.We've opened orders for our four-volume limited edition...

Edited to add: something went kaput yesterday and this email didn't go out to most people so here I try again. I voted by mail and today we went to our polling place to hit up the election day bake sale and support the school PTO. I hope you will vot...
