OYSTERHOOD is reclusiveness or solitude, or an overwhelming desire to stay at home.

I did not want to post the picture yesterday before Rachel had an opportunity first. This book is going to be a collector’s item! Get a copy of the first edition before it sells out.

A morning of quiet reading, but the rest of the day was unpredictably busy (apart from a long, heart-warming Skype conversation with an author). We are reprinting An Island, again. It is now flying off the shelves. I can only hope that readers will give all Karavan Press titles a chance, because they are all ‘Booker’-type-recognition-worthy in their own way. And I am proud of having published each single one of them.

On the personal front, a celebration: Salieri has been on her thyroid diet for a week! Such a relief.

Dinner with my love to end the day. Now, a hot shower and bed. Sleep has not been easy again, but not too bad either. A lot is happening. A deep breath.

Be kind. Wear a mask. Support local.
