I'm out sick today with a bug I picked up in London over the weekend, but hope to be back in the studio very soon. When I return, I'll tell you about my travels, which were full of music, selkies, and the art and lives of Pre-Raphaelite women.
In the meantime, I highly recommend Michael Chabon's beautiful tribute to Ursula K. Le Guin, on the Paris Review blog; and Nick Holland's "Folklore, Faeries and the Bront�� Novels," on his Bront�� blog.
