Saturday Miscellany—10/10/20

Not much time for surfing/blog hopping/reading/writing again this week. I’m still reading the same books as I was on the last day of September! I have managed to finish three audiobooks—can do those while packing and working, but still, three is a small number for myself in that time frame. And, only a couple of posts this week. I’m hoping for one or two more next week, but I’m not making any promises. Stay tuned…

In the meanwhile, I have a little bit for you this week…
that caught my eye this week. You’ve probably seen some/most/all of them, but just in case:
Fighting for Life – Indie Publishing in Unprecedented Times—As (beyond) tired as I am of the overused phrase, “unprecedented times,” you can’t deny that these times are unprecedented. It’s an Indie Book Blog talks about the challenges facing (and, sadly, defeating some) indie presses.
For Local Bookstores, The Next Chapter In The Pandemic Is Survival—indie stores, too.
From cut-out confessions to cheese pages: browse the world’s strangest books—huh. Books I don’t want. Good to know such a thing are possible.
Blogging: How Do You Blog Hop?—well, how do you?
The Art of Writing Book Reviews
Negative Book Reviews — Why I Write Them—one of the best approaches to this evergreen topic that I can remember
My Perfect Library—a fun post

I’d like to say hi and extend a warm welcome to Spellbound Librarian who followed the blog this week. Don’t be a stranger, and use that comment box, would you?
