Glad to hear it. I plan on one a week, on Tuesdays. At other times, an occasional Stephenson, Burns, Tennyson or other—maybe a Poe poem *heh* every now and then**—but Kipling Tuesdays will continue for at least a while.
I can’t recount the number of times that “General Summary” has popped into my head (and sometimes onto my lips) when I hear the latest shennanigans our congresscritters are up to…
“…As it was in the beginning/Is today official sinning/And shall be for evermore.”
Kipling is often viewed with disfavor among academics. Probably because most of academia takes the presciption Holly Lisle gives for “How to Write Suckitudinous Fiction” to be a prescription for writing “great literature.” Kipling was a craftsman. But a craftsman with a vision.
And his view of critics is in congruance with mine on a 1 to 1 basis in “The Conundrum of the Workshops” (to be featured in an upcoming “Kipling Tuesday” *s* ‘S’all right. Most folks will have forgotten it by then, and faithful readers of “Kipling Tuesdays” will appreciate re-reading it.)
