The "Still Going" Edition
Dear Readers,
This edition is competing for editorial/mind/focus/time with another writing project. That project is, proverbially, being put to bed this week. So I will have a bit more mind share and will also be able to share a bit more about the book itself.
In the meantime, I’ve mentioned before that it’s not about me, not The Book I Will Likely Never Wrtie (But Never Say Never) but rather it’s a book of letters written by other people that I have edited and done the grahic design production of. It’s a cross between an art book and an academic press book. To be discussed!
Today in New York City it’s very nice and sunny but still…winter. Have I mentioned that I am really over this cold thing? I’m (literally) dreaming of Spring. Early this morning I dreamt that I was strolling along really appreciating how comfortable I was and how special the air felt. And then — in the dream — I was looking at email and was surprised to see that a deal I thought was long finished had come back to life and I was going to get a lot of money! Now that’s a Spring I’m looking forward to.
In the meantime here is a still frozen edition of The LZ Sunday Paper, a place where politics, business, health, the arts, pop culture, and sports—curated with women in mind—gets delivered right to your virtual doorstep.
If you don’t already subscribe, please do:
