RECYCLED BOOK LAUNCH!
It’s TODAY! Woot! From 1:00-3:00 p.m., I’ll be up at the bookstore signing copies of ALL THREE books – we’ll have refreshments, door prizes, and specials! Stop in and say hello – and, well, buy the damn book. Books. Whatever! I should mention, too, that there are few “extras” in the back of RECYCLED. You […]

When Did This Happen? Melanie Whithaus
I’ve noticed that I tend to write a lot about the future when it comes t o these blog posts. What I’m going to do with my life in ten years from now, or even what I’m doing in one year from now. Or even what I plan on doing tomorrow. But the one thing […]

Book Reviews
People buy books. People read books. But if people don’t ever TELL anyone about those books, no one else will ever know about them. Sure, you’ve read a lot of books. And you might tell your significant other about them, or your friends. But do you write a review and post it publicly? The two […]

REDUCED, REUSED, RECYCLED

The Way of the Dodo
Oh, yes, this blog post is indeed running late today – by about eight hours! I intended to write about something entirely different but, in light of today’s designated “thinking day,” my new topic just barged right on in here. And yes, it’s about bookstores. I worked on the accounts today, out of necessity; not […]

Prep Monday – How it Began
This week, I’m going to tell you how it all started and why some people think I’m a prepper. Am I? Maybe… I grew up on a farm. My great-great-great grandfather started that farm in 1850. We lived there from the time I was born until I was three, then again when I was 13 […]

Surprises in the Books You Read – Rachel Gorin
I will read pretty much anything. However, I do go through phases with my reading, like many people I know. I’ve had a sci-fi/fantasy phase, a historical fiction phase, and phases where I’ve had a marathon of reading all of the books a particular author has written or about a particular person, group, or period […]

People and their pets
Reblogged from Under the Toronto Sun: People love their pets and when petting and talking about them isn’t enough, they create a webpage for them. One of those people is Barbara Florio Graham who create a page (http://simonteakettle.com/blogterzo.htm) for her cat Terzo on which all kinds of animals can be found. Other than cats and […]

The Book House and Books and Bookstores, Oh, My!
First, I want you all to know that Michelle over at The Book House IS moving and DOES have a place to which to do so. She’ll be relocating in Maplewood over the next couple months (and, boy, she sure could use some help – you’ve seen The Book House, right?) and she has some […]
