Beautiful photos! Makes me think about my own personal library on a whole new level.

Wow, this is so cool. Love the photos and hearing about the books you found resonant. Also to get a glimpse into your (very aesthetic) studio :)

Thank you so much for the meaningful tour. I had completely missed your soft launch Sounds amazing! I look forwards to seeing more of your students out in the world (& becoming one myself once I become more organised with homeschooling)

Wow! Those pictures man. Made me crave to be there for hours, reading all those little gems you have. Also loved seeing the Ghibli's movies and getting to know the Yeti.

Also, veery excited about the course!

I feel so VIP getting a glimpse of your artist/writer lair! Based on your photos and book descriptions, your library feels moody, warm and inviting. Like in the cellar of an historic building, I'm imagining a fireplace leaving the faint glow on your books. I'm also picturing oversized leather chairs draped with some flannel blankets, a place one could spend hours reading in by the fire. What a vibe!

I loved this line about the Biblioteca Project: "A bit like a date with the divine, I always find myself lingering until the end of the story rather than stopping in for a verse." I'm also curious to learn more about Cicero. ALSO love seeing an up-close shot of your Yeti, I love his crazy eyes.

AND looking forward to your workshop this week! I just love how personal this edition of Library Notes is. Great edition!!!

I love this behind the scenes look Steven! Basements in Idaho need to get you to do their PR. Beautiful photos, the yeti at the end was such a fun touch. Congrats on a great first Photography for Creatives workshop, really enjoyed it!

Enjoyed the tour into the library of a scholar of diverse study. I'm inspired. My reading habit is very heavily slanted to online material. Your kid is getting awesome modeling for learning. Loved the "artifact of glass" comment.
