the book

This is a blank book I bought in Iowa City one year ago next week. There is something about an empty book that makes inking the first page an exercise in intimidation. Then again, I starved it for a year. It shouldn't have much fight left.

I have a nice collection of books like that-empty, that seem to be reaching out for...something. Also have a couple with page one filled in, then that's it.

JI,

I've found the small ones fill up fast, especially when I copy others' words.
