If you're dipping into the #sealeychallenge in August but are on a budget like me, I'd be happy to share or swap a PDF of an (old, out-of-print) chapbook or two. I've got "Homebodies," "Heiress to a Small Ruin" and "Excuse me while I wring this long swim out of my hair." Just ask!

Since it's Marcel Proust's 255th (?) birthday today (🎂), I am seizing the opportunity to sing the praises of the British textile artist Rhiannon Williams, who stitched the 3000pp of In Search of Lost Time into patchworks, her aim being to "transpose a narrative figuring of time into stitched time."
