I know it was on the shelf in the “dining room” (read: bachelor library) of my old house. So I took a chance on this box, one of many, many, many still in the pole barn after the move five years ago.

No luck. But my goodness, the evocations. Seeing these books – their spines, their covers, their associations and connotations – was like walking into a class reunion.

Had to seal the box back up and get back to the typing. Will look for Harry again another time.

It wasn’t quite the right height, so in addition to The Oxford Companion to English Literature, I have delved back into the ol’ nursing school texts.

This is when the obsessive-compulsive tendencies that frustrate me to the edge of madness throughout the rest of the process (and daily life itself) suddenly become an asset. This is the inky equivalent of a musician tinkering with the mix.
