Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet No. 39 cover - click to view full sizeWe were in Portland, OR, last week at the Tin House Summer Workshop — what a feat that is! 250+ people come from all corners of the world to write, talk, and work together. Before it all began (by which I don’t mean 20 years ago, rather a week or so ago), Kelly and I stopped off at Powell’s books and I’m delighted to report that, yes, they still have some good books. Face out in the small & indie press section I was very happy to see the new issue, the 39th of its kind, of LCRW.

Did I take a photo? No. I did not, mostly because I stood there picking through the zines and the place was busy, busy so there was no time for a quiet photo. I picked up some other zines, and, oh a few books. They never have everything I’m looking for, but, oh, they always have some things I wasn’t looking for, such a joy.
