Margaret! You’re here... sharing your reading insights with us. Thank you! Just this morning I received my own copy of Cartooning by Ivan Brunetti from your list! I hope I’ll have read it before you write about it. 😊

I so love this idea that 'beauty prompts a copy of itself'. Something I'd never thought about in such a way, but that I find indeed, to be true. Add it to your closing idea about beauty being something that needs to 'be safely carried forward to people in the future'... Just wonderful. All of it. Thank you Margaret. If I may share something in return, I've recently posted about 'Ways of validating beauty (and joy) during bat-shit crazy, challenging times.' Maybe you might enjoy this as well!

Thank you for your lovely response Matthew and I like the tenor of your own stack... we seem to be ploughing a similar furrow. Great!
