2013 Literary Pin-up Calendar: Neil GaimanMedia is the message. Be afraid. A year ago, my literary pin-up calendar was published by Pat Rothfuss’s wonderful charity Worldbuilders. “Dear Neil, He did: But having a model before having a concept is unusual. There were these photos to be taken into account: As anyone who understands the history of the Hays Code or has wrestled with the arbitrary restrictions of iambic pentameter knows – restrictions of form can lead to happy accidents.
“Heifer International’s mission is to work with communities to end hunger and poverty and care for the Earth through the gift of animals. By giving families a hand-up, not just a handout, they empower them to turn hunger and poverty into hope and prosperity, but their approach is more than that. By bringing communities together and linking them with markets in their area, Heifer helps bring sustainable agriculture and commerce to areas with a long history of poverty.”
**Tom Lehrer famously noted forms still stranger: “postcards, neckties, samplers, stained-glass windows, tattoos, anything!”
