The Judson weekend was held at Incarnation Camp on Sept. 14 through 16. It\u2019s a perfect time of year to be near Ivoryton, Conn. Fall is arriving. The leaves are a mix of green and yellow and the private lake is shimmering. \u00a0Along with a gang of kind people, I helped a friend who is suffering from dementia. His wonderful daughter stayed with him and the rest of us spelled her occasionally. We had a talk about dementia and what it does to families. As my friend\u2019s wife said, wisely and sadly, it\u2019s not going to get better only worse. I felt vaguely saintly, helped by the Saturday night margaritas. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Monday evening I attended Sisters in Crime. The meeting was held at Jefferson Market Library. The evening with Matt Martz, Publisher, Crooked Lane Books was wonderful. Mister Martz answered thoroughly the Sisters in Crime secretary\u2019s penetrating questions about editing, contracts, foreign rights, the market, submissions, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wednesday evening a friend and I went to the Morgan Library and Museum to hear an amusing and lively talk about Mary Shelley, Frankenstein and Art\u2019s Gothic strain. On October 12 the Morgan is opening the exhibit, It\u2019s Alive! Frankenstein at 200. The exhibit will include scholarly work, after all, it is the Morgan and lots of comic book illustrations, film posters and Elsa Lancaster in the 1935 Bridge of Frankenstein. Perfect for Halloween.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
