Everyone Says Goodbye Too Soon
...Introducing the print version of the Raymond Chandler Project!
Hi everyone -
I’ve been meaning to write for a while just to thank everyone who signed up for this newsletter. I had so much fun curating it, and was so impressed by the incredible talented people who contributed. Thank you to everyone, readers and creators alike.
Throughout this journey I have been thinking hard about how to publish the contents in a book. Sadly, it seemed doubtful that a real publisher would be interested…and I couldn’t see a way to remunerate contributors…but I do think there is something to be said for holding a tangible, real life object in your hands, rather than allowing the website to languish, or, to disappear into the atmosphere when the inevitable climate wars come and send us back to the dark ages. So, in commemoration of this project, my sister Vivien helped me put together a manuscript so we could publish it ourselves, on the Lulu platform. If you’re interested in purchasing a copy, you can do so by using this link:

Stay tuned for information regarding our Zoom book launch party!
Meanwhile, I’m still happy to publish any other contributions I get at this website - keep ‘em coming, and if we get enough I’ll do a Volume 2.
cheers!
Gina
Thanks for the reading gift.
