Hi Dan.....Sorry I haven't been more in touch since WW10.
The presentation to Kay went over well...Mary did the honors.
Tripp Museum (part of the Sauk Prairie Area Historical Society) has been invaluable in promoting the works of Derleth. Their exhibit of Derleth was very well done.

We have a committee...to look at the technology that ADS can use for its mission:  You, Fred, Henry, and myself.
Committees will be meeting at 11 tomorrow, prior the the regular meeting of ADS, and the number one item I will be presenting is the possibility of a program to create Derleth's works on the Kindle format. You would be a major part of that, if it was voted to proceed.
If you would provide some ballpark figure on OCR work (when needed, we have some already digitized as you know), creating the file for Kindle (including any Amazon requirements), per book or per hour of your time (or your business' time).

We missed seeing you in October. Perhaps next October, it can be with your visit. My daughter Eva, is being married on October 8th, in Arizona, so that will put me there for several days around that date.

Best regards,

Jim Kirchstein
