The Clive Hicks-Jenkins bookplates have arrived here and will be going out this week--need to get stamps and envelopes and stiffener! Thanks to all of you who put in the first orders. Canadian and UK Thaliad plates have already gone out. |
Seek Giacometti’s “The Palace at 4 a.m.” Go back two hours. See towers and curtain walls of matchsticks, marble, marbles, light, cloud at stasis. Walk in. The beggar queen is dreaming on her throne of words…You have arrived at the web home of Marly Youmans, maker of novels, poetry collections, and stories, as well as the occasional fantasy for younger readers.

"Thaliad" bookplate update

Alas, I must once again remind large numbers of Chinese salesmen and other worldwide peddlers that if they fall into the Gulf of Spam, they will be eaten by roaming Balrogs. The rest of you, lovers of grace, poetry, and horses (nod to Yeats--you do not have to be fond of horses), feel free to leave fascinating missives and curious arguments.
I had a beautiful blue one!
ReplyDeleteOh, really? Clearly you are a very special recipient!
ReplyDeleteIt's true, I made some blue ones for myself, and sent Lucy a spare one, as part of my thank you for her having been proprietor of the Artlog while I was away at Christmas. But I will do some blue one for you too, dear Marly, if you would like them. Or any other colour come to that.
ReplyDeleteClive, I am entirely too grateful to ever ask for anything from you! Much received already--tangible and intangible...
ReplyDeleteOops, didn't know I was a special case! Embarrassed preening ensues...
ReplyDeleteLucy, you have long been special in the best possible way!
