Have just this minute finished recording Chapter 1 of Henry James's "Washington Square," a book I've long loved for its exquisitely-crafted long sentences.

It is my hope that Jim Linwood -- author of this photograph -- will grant me permission to remix it into the small artwork that will accompany this audiobook recording into the public domain.

It's great to be back reading to you again.

I begin to read "Washington Square" by Henry James.

It's my hope that the author of this photograph will permit me its remixed use for the artwork that will represent this public domain endeavor.

Perfect angle I think.

Chapter 1's recorded and will be up soon...as soon as I make a suitable image.

Great to be back reading again.
