I was going to do a Sept 11 thing
all about how as the dust settled we were afraid for the people we worked with (Muslims) and how I went out with them to the grocery store because we really did fear someone would try to harm them--especially the women in their traditional headscarves. Even though the mood was fierce and ugly, no one ever did anything more than yell a couple of obscenities. I felt relieved and proud of us Americaners. But then I remembered that my policy is I don't do those Sept. 11 things . And anyway, Aya just posted a new comic book online . The cover art reminds me of the old children's book stories about Tim who was always going out to sea . Edward Ardizzone illustrations. (Sorry, Aya. I know artists hate being told, hey that looks just like so and so's work . But there it is.) Okay. I'm going to slog through more revisions and then go read her comic book.
