Ghostsigns in The Simple Things magazine
A new magazine, The Simple Things, features a great article about Ghostsigns. Written by Kirsten Elliott of Akeman Press in Bath, there are also a couple of wise words and a bunch of photos from yours truly. Regular readers may recall a couple of fascinating photos that Kirsten recently provided to this blog and there is another due for publication soon.
PS. The interview with Kirsten was memorably done by phone just as the rainy season was kicking off here in Cambodia. Thunder and lightning were crashing all around me so Kirsten did well to make me seem mildly coherent amid all the chaos!
