Epilogue: Happy New Year!
It’s January. I love that fresh new year feeling.
Yesterday I completed the MFAH 100, a project that occurred to me one morning last August—to write 100 words each about 100 objects in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, in honor of the museum’s 100th birthday. The project was more successful and enjoyable than I could have imagined, and it opened up a whole new way of working for me. Thanks to everyone who cheered me on, commented, even liked a post during the process—it meant a lot, truly. I am planning to release the MFAH 100 as a book later this year. Will update that news as it firms up!
I’ll be announcing a new series of daily 100-word entries soon, and in the meantime, will be regularly posting slightly longer pieces (but not too long—we are impatient readers, speaking for myself at least). The first one will be everything I learned doing the MFAH 100 project.
A bit of housekeeping: this is the final post in the MFAH 100 section of this blog. For anyone who subscribed recently, all new posts—including the next 100-word series—will now appear under The Impatient Reader general header. If you want to continue receiving them, please click here to manage your subscription. You’ll want to be sure “The Impatient Reader” is toggled on, like this:
Feel free to get in touch with questions or feedback. Happy New Year, everyone. Thanks for reading.
