Next book of my poetry due out this autumn!
Potentially will be Harbin-centric in part again ...

likely drawn from 2010 - 2011 or so ...

Glad someone got another of my "Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality and Virtual Harbin" (Kindle Edition) books for $24.99, much less, and without an extensive index, than $64.95 for this large book on paper ... amazon.com/author/scottmacleodworlduniversity ...

M,
Someone just bought my book "Naked Harbin Ethnography" as a Kindle! (Since it happened while I'm on Cuttyhunk, - first guess: J.K.? :) but I may never know - that's the thing with writing and publishing. One kind of puts something, writing, 'out there' and observes a kind of distributed conversation which emerges .... :)
Might I win a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship which would help World University and School develop further, and re my actual virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic and poetry project? Would be great!
Love, Scott

Hi M,
Storm brought the temperature way down - to pleasant - even with moisture in air. Heat and humidity of past 3 days, which were sapping me, relented ... and out I popped for a walk, up Bayberry to the Bunkers overlooking the West End Ponds and back down Tower Hill road turning left at Church to walk on Church path home. Liking the people I pass, off of boats, etc., the safety, beauty and views of Cuttyhunk. The 'subjectivity,' or roles, of men and women seems familiar and somehow affirming and healthy, and different from out west - or in Pittsburgh (sociology-wise). Cuttyhunk's a great place to roam around as a kid, eg as a teenager, having done so myself, and also seen kids doing this this afternoon. There's a freedom and safety for kids. Yay.
Heard from Christine Craig, and they're all looking forward to seeing you, Chris said. Nice to hear from her.
On with piping and a bit of housecleaning too since it's still a bit too wet to garden. Hope Bede McCormack will come over around 4 for a visit. He's an academic in the NYC area ...
Appreciating the relief from the heat, and adventuring out.

How's your day going?
L, Scott
On the bunkers overlooking Gosnold's monument and West End ponds ... blustery but rain has stopped for now .... so beautiful too, M! How are you?
