It’s the pre-holiday raft of reader comment . . .

The Star — legendary for its open forum for extensive reader comment. And here’s this week’s . . .

Dear David,

I wish to add to the fine obituary of Marijane Meaker in the Nov. 24 Star. I was one of the original members of the Ashawagh Hall Writers Workshop that Marijane organized and led, from September 1983 through May 2014. In addition to her many accomplishments as a writer, she was an excellent teacher, skillfully leading the workshop. We met every Thursday evening for two hours upstairs in Ashawagh Hall through the academic year.

Part of This Place

To the Editor,
    Okay, Bess or  David or whoever also must be part of this accolade, perhaps it is because we got a small little space in the holiday East magazine that I paged through and read more intensely, but it is more likely that because the issue is such a work of art and so beautifully a statement of what is actually part of this place that I can't place it aside and remain mute.

It was an unusually short week in East Hampton Star reader comment . . .

From post-midterm fallout to the Potter plans for downtown Sag Harbor, readers weigh in.

From affordable housing to adoption, here’s the last raft of reader comment written before the midterm election.

On the election, pollinator gardens, and plastics.

This week, ecology is front and center.

From memories of Joe O’Connell and Kent Feuerring to divisions over Lee Zeldin, it’s the week in reader comment.

Warm remembrances and thanks for good work lead off reader comment this week.

Of rescues, saves, and good Samaritans.
