Letter writing is the only device for combining solitude with good company.

-Lord Byron

Contacting Robin Artisson

 Contacting Robin isn't hard; the miraculous modern day has created a massive web of energy and interaction which ties the entire world together, and so sending letters or IM's to him is a cinch. Isn't it strange how easy it is to communicate with practically anyone on the planet, and yet, we still seem to feel a bit "out of touch" at times? Remember when people had to actually write letters with pens and paper? The world's gotten smaller, and yet, the gap between people seems to have gotten larger. Don't let the gap stop you from writing to Robin if you have something to say.

His email is howlet_dark@yahoo.com and he's always checking email, at least, if he's near a computer. There are those times when he's out in the wilderness (whether the actual wilderness or the wilderness of academia/therapia) and can't respond, but he'll get back to you. Bear in mind that he's got to answer a lot of letters, love notes, death-threats, deal with malfunctioning spam filters, and still act like a responsible adult at times- so it might take a few days for him to get back to you.

Robin is happy to speak to you via YIM, but you'll need to email him and tell him your screen name, so that he can add you. This is regretful, but Robin could not otherwise use the IM box, with the amount of traffic from people who try to IM. His chat is set to reject IM's from people not on his friends list. He'd still love to hear from you. If you email, be advised: Yahoo! has a tendency to eat emails that it thinks are spam, so make sure that you use an email account that has a good history getting through spam filters. Such are the perils of modern day miracle communication technologies.
