off again

Hello everyone! Please forgive my recent silence; I've been battling pending deadlines and a respiratory infection. I am off to a colloquium (again in California) on frontier literature. I will be back online on Sunday. Please know that I plan to catch up with everyone very soon! I am sending best wishes to all of you.

A Tolkien-inspired quote for the day:

Kills the starlight...
In a land so fair,
Blood burns cold there.
From "Greenwood the Great," Mostly Autumn
