This blog started in the summer of 2012 with articles about book editing and about literature I find worthwhile. Later it widened to cover many topics. Click on 'Earlier Posts' to see the complete list. Comments welcome. Contact me at Brian@valetales.info. Thanks to Renée Rosenberg for suggesting that I start this blog.

The multicolored font of "Editorial Ramblings" in the picture at the top of this page was inspired by a display at The Museum of The Moving Image (Queens, NY) in September, 2014. The display at the Museum featured letters with these same overlapping colors scrolling across the wall in a text scroll. Designed by the artists known as "Young Hae Chang Heavy Industries".
