In 1970, students in a fifth-grade class at Hawthorne School in Beverly Hills were assigned to write a letter to someone they admired, asking them “What makes a good citizen?" So 10yr old Joel Lipton wrote to Peanuts cartoonist Charles M. Schulz. Joel got a reply.

Ha ha ha!

That’s it! It’s a large format paperback. Just realised I only have one hb left!

@liznugent.bsky.socialOct 3, 2026, 12:59 PM

Yes perfect!

I can’t find them either but I know I promised a signed and dedicated book The Truth About Ruby Cooper and that I will cover postage from Ireland. Did I fill in a form and submit it? Perhaps it was for a different charity? 😳

A mixed media #painting. One of Dublin's most loved buildings. "Sunlight Chambers", as seen from along the edge of Grattan Bridge's Hippocamp lamps, I painted because few sights in Ireland can instantly convert me back into childhood than seeing its ceramic friezes close up. #SpéirGhorm #ArtYear

Portrait format in black ink and watercolour on paper. Starting from the left edge is a view along the top of the green metal rail of Grattan bridge showing half a dozen copper lamps, on their Hippocampus stands of metal painted green, almost directly in line so there is little to no space between them as they recede. Beyond them is a building, four stories, on a corner, with side of 2 windows width directly facing viewer, and a short angled side of one window width at the left corner edge behind lamp-posts. Lowest story is mostly stone, in pale blues and lilacs, with arches above the windows and a decorative blue medallion between the two arches facing viewer. Above arches and rest of building is yellow with wide figurative bands of blue above and below the 2nd story. Windows are made up of little black panes - narrow, twinned, and arched on 3rd story, topped with triangles on 2nd story. Window arches, triangles, and side supporting columns are blue.

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.

And now for some good news:

"Visits to public libraries around Ireland have increased by two million in the last two years. New figures show that almost 16 million visits were made to Ireland's libraries in 2025, compared with nearly 14 million in 2023."
