Hi Caitlin, I enjoyed your story about “Mr. Chan and the Machine” greatly. I have a large collection of historic letter press equipment. I am from Eugene, living and working in Wuhan and I would love to be able to meet Mr. Chan. I would appreciate being able to get in touch with you. I would appreciate it if you would drop me a line at tom@ironmanwindmill.com and let me know how I can get in touch with you! I look forward to reading more of your work.
