planetalyxis safely home and my vacation days are behind me. It was awfully swell to have the presence of a beloved friend in the loft, and to do those sorts of things I don’t do on my own in my home town. A fantastic two weeks, all considered. Thank you, Alyx.

It was awfully swell to have the presence of a beloved friend in the loft, and to do those sorts of things I don’t do on my own in my home town. A fantastic two weeks, all considered. Thank you, Alyx. Now, I have the workshop stories to read and crit, a story to write, the novel to re-submerge in, birthdays and baby shower presents to see to, and, of course, a great towering bunch of jobwork editing to do.
And here’s an interesting quote from Edith Wharton (1862-1937):
“How much longer are we going to think it necessary to be ‘American’ before (or in contradistinction to) being cultivated, being enlightened, being humane, and having the same intellectual discipline as other civilized countries?”
Apparently a fairly long while.
