authors/book sellers get a far better deal cashwise from ETSY than from Amazon with its long list of petty charges. Plus, ETSY is far more politically and ethically acceptable than Amazon.

Israel Putnam fought alongside Rogers, but they were two very different men. The saying at the time was, "Putnam led [his men into battle]. Rogers sent." A new biography of Putnam is available from ETSY.

At this point it’s been said in a hundred different ways, so I think people are being intentional about not getting it.

I've only been trying Bluesky for a few days and as someone who never used any social media other than Facebook, I must say that I don't find learning it use to be very intuitive. It seems to assume prior knowledge of terms and procedures without which a new user is left floundering.

The Kelsey Star Press. We hand set lead type for the first poetry "chapbooks" produced by ASHFORD PRESS. This press was originally owned by American Thread, passed on to Ashford Press and is now in the Mill Museum in Willimantic, Connecticut.
