I love it when a novel triggers memories for me. Abd I appreciate your piece about Amazon. There are many factors to be considered by authors as they seek markets for their books .

No easy answers, when we're trying to fight against the power of the big corporations without hurting workers.

How I adore traveling with you, to places, in books, to the past, the murky waters of politics and what's happening Now! (I don't love what's hapenning, but reading what you have to say about it), and up the mast! That photo and the one of the blue and green and tranquil water. Oh and the book reviews. Thank for all of this. Enjoy the sail. I'll be on the road. Hope we connect virtually.

Jennifer, that last photo - so beautiful!! And loved you climbing the mast to put up Christmas lights and your first photo of you, Russel and Charlie.. Re the first part of your essay on the state of the state - you said it all. Anchors Away on the high seas as you sail north and enjoy your BC summer. It looks fabulous. Saludos.

Another very good Substack newsletter, Jenny! I was unaware of some actions by the Trump administration because I've tuned out of US news to reduce stress. LUV the book reviews! Joel is one of my favorite writers, and I think I clicked a link on his Facebook profile to pre-order the second robot book. I'll check.
