  1. Let It Bloom

    A relative of Irish descent reminded me that today is Bloomsday, or a day to celebrate the life and work of James Joyce. 

    What is Bloomsday? – Bloomsday Festival

    Bloomsday celebrates Thursday, 16th June 1904 — the day immortalised in James Joyce’s novel Ulysses. The day is named after Leopold Bloom, one of the novel’s protagonists. The novel follows Bloom’s life and thoughts (as well as those of Stephen Dedalus and a host of other characters, real and fictional) from early in the morning to the twilight hours of the following day.

    It may also be helpful for other writers to know that even Joyce worried about his work being forgotten.

    No chance of that today!
