Long time gone.
When I last left you, summer was waning, and ANDRONICUS was still on the horizon for a late September run. As I check the calendar, it is now nearly Halloween…

OK, so occasionally, I get mail. I mean real contact through this site (as opposed to the near daily spam of folks trying to sell me on CBD, raise my Google ranking, or just send me really suspicious links). No, I mean Shakespeare Stuff.
And ladies and gents, this is one of those days.

As You Like It Act I Header
Illustrator: Kenny Meadows
Engraver: John Orrin Smith
Of course, that’s my favorite, as it corresponds well with the set…
