Daniel C. Bianchino
I happened upon Daniel today at the bookstore. I was picking up some mail and he stopped in to see if I was around. We had a great talk about the importance of inspiring and enlightening people (as many people as possible) and the importance of preserving the kind of writing that does just that. By means of archival printing methods, be it offset or letterpress, the written word and visual art can be preserved indefinitely; certainly well beyond the age of the oldest surviving books and ephemera that exist today. Those items were not produced with archival materials: acidic paper and inks, weak glues, non-stainless staples, etc. Today we can create literature that will last hundreds of years before it begins to tarnish at all, so long as it is cared for with modest usage. We hope to publish literature that not only lasts but is worth lasting. I look forward to publishing Daniel in the future. His writing is both inspiring and enlightening, and his vision is true.
