An Unreckoned Lapse

Between the term ending, a piece being due, and the usual holiday fooferaw, I unfortunately have been a less-than-palpable Web presence. This is now between myself and my New Year's resolutions, I suppose, but I have no plans to desert you.

So soon enough, I'll write about some new books I've read (particularly Pynchon plus the newly re-issued Tennessee Williams Memoir) and some great music I've heard, plus some Los Angeles holiday plans and some forthcoming performances. (After all, composer David Rakowski mentioned that I'd been more generous about alerting people to performances of his music than my own.)

Until then, enjoy the seventh night of Hanukkah, and you've not seen the last of me.
