Bookin' It in 2023

The year 2023 was the most difficult year of my life, for a number of reasons.  I found it nearly impossible to focus on reading for pleasure, but I was able to finish the following four books.

1. The Apology by Eve Ensler
   
2. The Secret to Superhuman Strength by Alison Bechdel  
3. Look Again: A Memoir by Elizabeth A. Trembley
4. Practicing to Walk Like a Heron: Poems by Jack Ridl 

Hearing MK Czewiec and Elizabeth Trembley

Last night, I had the pleasure of experiencing two authors/educators/graphic artists, MK Czerwiec and Elizabeth Trembley, speak at Hope College's first Jack Ridl Visiting Writers Series event of the school year.

Meeting Elizabeth A. Trembley

I enjoyed hearing and meeting author Elizabeth A. Trembley at Out on the Lakeshore tonight.  She spoke about her graphic memoir, Look Again, as well as the magic of making comics.
