H.G.Wells. Expensive writing implements and associated distress. Evidently some writers are prepared to shell out $20 apiece for Faber’s old Blackwing pencils. A box goes for a cool $250. One essayist explains that the Blackwing has a sleek and unique design, and if you’ve ever used one, you know it is a very smooth-writing and easy to use pencil. Its famous slogan ‘Half the Pressure, Twice the Speed’ [Ed. note: reminds me of an ex-boyfriend's approach to -- oh, never mind] is no exaggeration. The little rectangular erasers look cool, granted, and probably deter biting (you know, to revive the eraser when you’ve worn it down). Still, we’re talking about pencils. Meaning that you stick them in a sharpener, grind them down, and then they go away. More power to you if you’ve got twenties to burn. When I write longhand, as I do at least a third of the time, fancy writing implements distress and intimidate me.
I really don’t spend much time thinking about what I’m using as long as le pen moves quickly across the page. My thoughts about notebooks are similar. eBooks « Catspaw Dynamics. Return to Barsoom A new adventure of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ John Carter of Mars It has been over 60 years since we last heard from John Carter, the Warlord of Mars.

Caterpillaresque tales… Remember Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar who turns into a beautiful butterfly after eating through various delicacies? It is still one of our most popular children’s books and comes in all sorts of formats – the small board book version reigns supreme here but I remember a largish paperback from when I was a child, it has probably gone because paper pages, as opposed to board, don’t stand up to the usage that is demanded of this classic.

We have just received copies of a clever, funny, rather pointed book inspired by the famous caterpillar, it is written by Bill Manhire – yes, the NZ poet/professor/founder of the International Institute of Modern Letters at Victoria University – and beautifully illustrated by Mark Harfield, a Paris-based, NZ illustrator & artist: closed.
