Here's the article about The Great Courses: Sarah Max's "Born in the VCR Era, Great Courses Seeks to Evolve."
Interview: The iconic musician and writer Moby. His fascinating new memoir is Porcelain.
Here's the quote from E. B. White that I mention:
"Margaret Mitchell once remarked: ‘It is a full-time job to be the author of ‘Gone With the Wind.’ This remark greatly impressed me, as being an admission of defeat, American style. (Miss Mitchell, incidentally, was not overstating the matter—she never produced another book.)" --E.B. White, Letters, May 7, 1961
Elizabeth’s Gold Star: Elizabeth has been making stir-fry vegetables for herself.
Gretchen’s Gold Star: I moved my Scent Library to a more convenient spot in the apartment.
