  1. Did you see Ron Chernow is coming out with a new bio of Mark Twain? I ordered it but it won't be out until May.

  3. Steve Layman has added Rob, Kurt, and You to the list. 😊. http://andersonlayman.blogspot.com/2025/01/a-few-more-minds.html
    Waiting on my new glasses to arrive this week so I can read your book comfortably. Looking forward to life with clear corneas.
