Well, I would time-travel all sorts of places if I could. But I like seeing the past of anywhere, alive.
Oh yes! As would I, with the utmost amazement. I was just trying to express how moved I was by those photos -- with unlimited access to New York's past, it would take a while before I'd even begin to lose interest in all that it includes. And writing that just made me think of a story, a gift from the stars.... The Past of Anywhere, Alive. But the words are yours and not for me to take, only to celebrate.
And writing that just made me think of a story, a gift from the stars.... The Past of Anywhere, Alive. But the words are yours and not for me to take, only to celebrate.
The night before last I finished a draft of a 7,000-word autobiographical essay about my acquaintanceship / friendship with Joanna Russ, and sent it to the editor who asked for it. Revisiting a journey that began almost thirty years ago has been surprising and illuminating in ways I never anticipated; I suspect that must be true of all forms of time travel.
