So sorry to disappear for a bit! New England has been a strange place to be living this past year!
I am happy to announce that Hidden Histories: Behind the Walls Volume II is on its way! While you’re waiting for the second volume, why not visit the order page and grab yourself a digital copy of Behind the Walls for a limited time!
Just a quick update: Behind the Walls, the special edition, is officially sold out of its first printing.
It is now available for preorder at http://www.asylumaveartists.com/preorder.html.
Preorder now to lock in the special edition price of $25.00 plus shipping.
And the icing on the cake, a quick photo from the Worceseter Firehouse.

I will be speaking at the Springfield Museums a la Carte summer lecture series on June 30th at 12:00. Join me for a discussion on mental health care, the asylum, and the evolution of state care for the disabled. Visit the Springfield Museums website for more information.

Now that I’m spending more time working on my site, I will now be spending some time blogging here. I’m still finding my way around WordPress so please bear with me as I figure out how to get around!
