A delightful visit with @derekbeaulieu.bsky.social in a most magical setting. We've been in contact for years now but this was our first time chatting in person. What a beautiful place, whether for work or rest!

At hopscotchtranslation.com, the 2nd part of a conversation I had with Breon Mitchell, former director of the Lilly Library at I. U. Bloomington. We discussed translation and archives from a variety of angles, and he shared plenty of tips and anecdotes. hopscotchtranslation.com/2024/12/10/f...
