The cozy bookstore is becoming extinct. The feel and smell of newsprint is unknown to anyone under 30. My poor Olympia typewriter sits dormant in its case, but I won’t give it up. In all else I do I am concerned with archival permanence and it pains me to even bother, knowing how ephemeral all these pixels really are. But I have received encouragement, like it or not.  I will try to keep to relevant topics. As of April 30 I now accept comments.
