This week is Banned Books Week, which I whole-heartedly support.

Why?

Mostly because of its founder, the late Judith Krug.  I met her once.  My wife worked with her.  She was phenomenal.

I was a fan of Banned Books Week long before I met Judith Krug, but having met her, I am devoted to it now.

Long live intellectual freedom.
