I’m a back from a couple of weeks Up North in Michigan. We swam, fished, canoed, biked, picked blueberries, ate cherries, found Petoskey stones, hatched monarch butterflies, and tried to ignore the rest of the world except for the Detroit Tigers.

While I was away, the Wall Street Journal ran my article on the SF/fantasy/horror writer Fritz Leiber. Also, NRO posted my podcasts with Adam Bellow on his book New Threats to Freedom and Richard M. Reinsch II on his book Whittaker Chambers. A brand-new podcast will become available tomorrow morning.
