Very cool. Thank you for sharing.

Mostly because of the layout, which is hard to digest digitally, but also nostalgia, I can't help but want the thing as a printed piece. Maybe there is a print-on-demand way to offer it to folks without any upfront cost.

you have surely lived a blessed Life

(which i am ever-grateful that you have recorded and share so brilliantly)

i would love to hear what your life was like living first-hand in Bolinas from the time you moved there and on through the 70's/early 80's. maybe you've written on this before and would rather point me in the direction for where to find?

Janus, I did a short-run printing of a semi-autobiographical book called LIVE FROM CALIFORNIA, which I believe is available from Green Apple Books in San Francisco, call them at 415-387-2272. (it will be reprinted as BREAKING FREE IN THE '60S probably early next year. it's the story of my life up until 1973.

Wow, this is so cool! I love the approach you’ve taken with this, both the aesthetics and the text. It’s like reading your personal diary / travel log. I admire how consistently inclusive you are with all of your books - as a reader I feel immediately welcomed to step inside your glorious world. More please! 😍

This is wonderful, Lloyd. Using Substack for your presentation of these kinds of books works just fine for me!
