The little things - libraries and Bookstores
The world's history, the world's momentum, the world's power, the world's communication, humanity is held within these places from the frivolous in the bookstores, which I love, too. I mean, the erasers and the pencils and the gimmicky little notepads that are fan based to the books that matter. The history, the pain, the sorrow, the agonies, the love, the passion. I love it all. And if I could live in a bookstore, I would

It's only been a few years, and already words are less generous. Imagination is automated. Everything, even beauty, is ransacked for utility. And dust jackets bring a rush of sadness. Do the inventors really know why they did it to the old gatekeepers of human magic? Is it too much to ask you come back. It won't be hard for you. We need your fastidiousness, your inwardness, your orderly souls

Hey there, it's Stephen again. I hope you forgive the double reply, but I'm also going to share with you the imaginary response I got from the librarians. Dear Stephen, thou shalt not complain. Farewell dust jackets and overdue books. They are not the firmament of litter. Here it is grace, and so pessimism for the future will not be tolerated. It is obvious that the faster technology creates, the less time to savor the creation, and that is still the role of poets

During COVID I had an idea for a book of letters exchanged during COVID Since people could no longer see each other, they could email each other and we could still digital message each other and call each other and Facetime. But I had talked to enough people to know that some people were actually returning to letters and packages and gifts in the mail during all over the world during shut in time. And I just did imagined these beautiful stories on paper unfolding

Those nights I would see them grab their big books or they would buy a much needed book from the store's main area, and those were pretty calm. Overall, I absolutely believe that my heaven would be books. I absolutely love the covers. I love it because it's like many windows to secrets. When I was younger, I found myself staying in a library or in the book section, and this was even when I was having reading problems

Just that sense of where language and universal themes would take us, that was really amazing. And books do that. So thank you for your comment, and it's nice to see you. I hope you're having a great day. Bye

And I don't know what happened with that group, but I downloaded his book on Gogioka just to learn a little bit more about it. And I will be going through it once more because I don't think I finished it. But, yeah, it's like five line poetry. And to me it seems like imagery is the key. But that was fun. That was fun

Not everything has to be as dry as a history textbook from school. So yeah, I love the larger the bookstore, the more it can accommodate my mood. What I really want to see in the moment, whether I want to see some comics or illustrations from some famous people. Charles Schultz has written a number of books with lots of compilations of his illustrations and science and technology, of course, science fiction. And there are authors who I know and I love to go look for

It was the artifacts. Sometimes the teacher would bring in or the photos that we will look at, the grainy photos, that was from another era that was really fun. And you're right. Photos are just as important artifacts. Firsthand accounts, firsthand scrolls. I love it. And so my favorite thing is japanese comics, mangas, because even though I absolutely love words, there's something about mangas and manwas that I love
