Poisoned Pen Press

There is no pleasure to me without communication: there is not so much as a sprightly thought comes into my mind that it does not grieve me to have produced alone, and that I have no one to tell it to.

Eleemosynary Bulls

We just emailed, and put up online, the newest issue of our bi-monthly newsletter, The Orphan Scrivener . If you care to take a look you'll find, in addition to my own blatherings, an essay by my co-writer, Mary Reed! The essays:


  • Another Sort of Good Character
    by Mary, concerns some odd Victorian charitable societies which she ran across in the course of researching a writing project.
  • Don't Leap to the Wrong Conclusion
    by Eric, is about the perils of describing bull-leaping in historicals.
  • By the way, I can't tell you how long I've been waiting to use the word eleemosynary.
