…while chopping wood in Vermont! It's charming, homey, funny, and sincere. And awesome.

That talk we had last week? Does this answer any of your questions about why you do this? About what it means to other people?

Labor of love. That may be *very* significant. I think it's a labor you can/should continue the rest of your life, with your aesthetic, your knowledge of what's good. should you try to make a living at it? Well, would you still make books that Christian Peet would read?

Make him your marker. Love you.

Yep

[multimediagrl]
