The answer was yes. There were six of us last week! We're meeting again next month (Nov 13th). Ping me if you want more info.

We're starting a Latin Circle in the Dallas area. Anyone local interested? Info: ericsowell.com/blog/2026/10/…

I'm starting a new in-person Greek class in N Dallas. If you're interested, here's more info: ericsowell.com/blog/2026/2/3…

Read Greek? Check out Ὁ ἐπὶ Τροίᾱν Πόλεμος. It's a fun little Greek novella. ericsowell.com/blog/2026/2/2…

I had a wonderful time at the @polisjerusalem Dallas program this summer. I just posted about it on my blog. ericsowell.com/blog/2025/11/… Thanks to @ricochristophe1 @ScorpioMartian @MagisterMeletus and Erik Ellis (not on X?) for putting it on.

If you're going to dig into the world of second-language acquisition, you need to wrestle with Stephen Krashen's ideas. If you want to understand them better, here are his five hypotheses in brief. youtu.be/sQSuhQdg7rE

Doing some L2 acquisition reading on vocabulary learning. I've my own favorite outside-the-classroom learning activities, but I'm reading to improve practices for myself and others. This last week's reading was from a relevant 2011 paper. ericsowell.com/blog/2025/10/…

Assisted or unassisted reading? To listen to audio when you read a foreign language text or not to listen, that is the question. But what's the answer? ericsowell.com/blog/2025/10/…

Started a new project a couple months ago. It's time to start talking about it. ericsowell.com/blog/2025/9/3…. More text week.

I shouldn’t have waited so long to get a book stand.

Today was the final meeting for my @CatherineProj group working through Aristotle's Metaphysics. It's a tough book, and reading it with a group helps. The group was a blessing and a gift.

Loved this one. Fun, hilariously critical, weird, and insightful. What a classic.

My best guess is that I’ve had this about 14 years. Finally had to resort to tape.

This was very good. If you’re interested in either TX/OK history or the Comanche, I highly recommended it.

Just for fun, today I checked to see if Chatgpt could transcribe some Migne for me. Very cool, but note the hallucination at the end. Untrustworthy but useful.

Though not my usual type of reading, I loved it.
