Thanks for Making My Point

A review of my Flights of Fancy gives truth to my claim that reviewers are clueless

or start at the beginning

The Camargo Diary started out as a blog I kept while at the Camargo Foundation in Cassis, France, from January through May 2005. In the meantime, I continue to make entries here off and on, sometimes just to express a thought or plant a seed in my own mind for another article.

If you bookmark this page, the most recent entry will always be listed in the header at the top of the page.
