I ran into a snag last night on Imprimatur - some of the lines in some of the poems are too long to fit on the paper I selected to use with the typewriter. I decided to quarter a regular 8.5x11" sheet of onion skin for the project, and I thought it was working out… Continue reading trouble in paradise
