25 years ago today I was at my desk at Michigan State University, following the news on my computer while fielding phone calls from work and home. I took many walks to the gardens with scared students, we would sit on the benches together and just try to slow our breathing. (1/2)

I used a quote from Lori's review in my book bundle promotion. 😁 storybundle.com/magic

Dexter and Sinister [is] a breath of fresh air. It reminded me of that childlike joy so many of us felt the first time we saw a computer keyboard steampunked, or tried on our first pair of goggles. It's a new-ish book that feels wonderfully old school. I enjoyed it immensely.
