Part of our vision for next year is to incorporate new voices in the Bookman — and to introduce new audiences to a distinctive conservative view. But this work requires resources to help edit, publish, and promote the content while maintaining a fund to provide writers a modest honorarium for their work.<p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px 0px 1em;border:0px;outline:0px;text-size-adjust:100%;vertical-align:baseline;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:500;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;line-height:1.5;max-width:100%">If just one out of four Bookman readers contributed $10 annually, we’d dramatically increase our ability to attract new writers and publish reviews and commentary from the voices you’ve come to know and trust.<p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px 0px 1em;border:0px;outline:0px;text-size-adjust:100%;vertical-align:baseline;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:500;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;line-height:1.5;max-width:100%">Will you give $50, $75, or $100 to help us meet our $20,000 goal to expand the work of the University Bookman?<p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px;padding:0px 0px 1em;border:0px;outline:0px;text-size-adjust:100%;vertical-align:baseline;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:500;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;line-height:1.5;max-width:100%">During Kirktober, every donor will receive a link to an audio recording Ex Tenebris, a ghostly short story from Russell Kirk.

Nowhere else can one engage with books that take seriously our God-given natures as persons and participants in a way of life that is worthy, brings us closer to who we ought to be, and is deeply ours. As an author and as a reader The Bookman enriches my understanding and enlivens my spirit as it keeps me grounded in the important task of renewing our common way of life." — Bruce Frohnen<p style="box-sizing:border-box;margin:0px 0px 0px 20px;padding:0px 0px 1em;border:0px;outline:0px;text-size-adjust:100%;vertical-align:baseline;font-style:normal;font-variant-ligatures:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:500;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;white-space:normal;text-decoration-thickness:initial;text-decoration-style:initial;line-height:1.5;max-width:100%">“The past couple of years have been a time of seemingly endless jeremiads about the decline of reading, literacy, and books.
