Hey everyone and welcome to this, our fourth show of the season. I want to thank all of you for joining me today.

Welcome to a cold and snowy day out here in Northern Virginia (at least when I recorded this).

On this episode I give you a quick update on what is going on in the life of Bryan the Writer and then I launch into a discussion about ISBN. Not necessarily what it is, but where did it come from in the first place.

You know the company as R.R. Bowker. But do you know who R.R. Bowker was? Did you know there was a connection between R.R. Bowker and the founder of the Dewy Decimal System? No, well, take a listen and find out about something we take for granted.
