Great, congratulations and thank you! I hope I will be able to buy your book(s) some day, but now I’m undergoing a serious $piritual setback. Anyway, your Diary Poems fill the void, plentyful.

Hi X.P., I have received my volume last night, and having spent some time with it, want to say what a wonderful accomplishment this is! First, it is beautiful in the hand, perfectly sized and designed. The paper quality, the beauty of the illustrations and of course the poems themselves within their engaging and thoughtful framework is genuinely a marvel. Thank you very much for this! I believe you would find a home for this wonderful volume in the book store at the Morgan Library in Manhattan.

Thank you so much, Victoria! I am happy to hear that you find the book pleasing. And the Morgan Museum--what a cool idea.

If you decide to move forward with the Morgan, I may be able to help make a connection there, but I believe the best bet would be to send the book with a letter directly to the buyer for the store. It is genuinely beautiful!

Thank you, Victoria. It’s such an enticing idea. I will use the contact email for the shop and find out whether and how to proceed.

Perfect! My good friend Laura is very close to the head of medieval & renaissance manuscripts department and I won’t hesitate to reach out to her if you feel you are hitting a wall. But I believe the direct route is probably least circuitous. It is a gorgeous store with all kinds of quirky and appealing volumes and I am convinced yours will fit right in. Please keep me posted.

Thanks so much, Victoria. I will give it a shot. What a thrill it would be to have this book at the Morgan!
