    I remember the heartbreak of letters that went unanswered without explanation. Loved this video.

    Thank you for this. Your thoughts on "Woman at the Washington Zoo" became poetry, nonrhyming but beyond prose. I have to order it - thank you for introducing me to its writer. Regarding letter-writing, I refuse to give up the joys. Nothing replaces the joy of an envelope in familiar writing, the rushing to make a giant cup of tea or coffee, the opening of the envelope and settling down to spend time with a friend. There is all the individualism of the stationery, ink colour and penmanship which bland emails cannot replicate, the uniqueness rather than the anonymous type which looks the same whether it's atrocious spam or official communication or friendly banter. And what about that word envelope? It reminds me of enveloping, hugging, being surrounded by someone's presence in a way that effects your environment. That reminds me, I have a letter to write today....

    There is something lost with the lack of letter writing, even emails are slowly going away. When we can just text or write on sites like Facebook, twitter or even here on KZread. For myself anyway, I remember putting more thought in writing a letter or email back in the 90s, than I do these days. That being said. The letters we’re most interested in are the ones you sent to DC comics, discussing all the changes they made throughout the years.

    I love library tours but yours are by far the best.

    I keep getting distracted by the titles on the shelves in the background, saying to myself, “Oh, I read that one!” or “I need to read that!” Then the Oxford Book of Letters drew may attention back to the center. I love those Oxford Book ofs. This one covering Letters used to be everywhere in bookstores. I’d forgotten about it. I’ll have to go and find a copy now. Thanks for bringing it up!
