Great article on The Kingston Prize book that WORK BOOK (Robyn Lew snd myself) co-published with Goose Lane Editions (Wells only mentions Goose Lane, not WORK BOOK).
Great episode. Quick comment: Barbara Hall didnβt ban the Barenaked Ladies. June Rowlands did.

No coincidence, that this week, which began with the ghastly inauguration and its tech collaborators, Microsoft Word intrudes its monstrous Copilot (AI) onto the page I'm writing; the fascist Copilot interrupts, Iago-like, my own sentence. The Copilot glozes, "Stop thinking. Let me take over."
