L’shana tova. May her memory be a blessing. And may this year bring the drive and determination to fight like fury because everything depends on our willingness to do so.

I'm teaching my #bookhistory class remotely, so letterpress posed a challenge. Luckily I found the LetterMPress app for iPads and could share a little demo with my students. Mess-free and fun (and yes students knew I was playing fast and loose with the furniture and lockup!) 📚🤓

How Arthurian literature was born.

"I want a real page-turner, not too long or too short. No horror, sci-fi, memoirs, or mysteries. I prefer fictional histories to historical fiction, but I'm willing to split the difference."

- Henry II
