It’s very rare that I ever blog about anything other than books here at Bibliofreak. But sometimes something happens, and I must use this blog for social justice. I regret that.
Over at that other job I have where I write stuff and don’t get paid either, I’ve had a couple of articles lately.
Recently I reviewed Zombocalypse Now by Matt Youngmark on Slog, The Stranger’s blog. My conclusion was:
Thanks in part to my internship, I’ve been getting out and doing things IRL, and then writing about them.
I’ve had the opportunity to play around with the Kindle. And if you haven’t entered to win one yet, be sure to do it, because there’s only a couple days left!
I only finally decided today, the first day of National Novel Writing Month, that I’m going to participate. I signed up and everything.
Ugh. I really wasn’t going to post about this. I felt that I said what I needed to say in the comments section of Rebecca’s Post regarding the BBAW shortlists and gotten some answers in reply, and then got more answers after reading a post on Book Smugglers and that was that.
You know, it’s where you drop some acid and read your favorite classics. No no no no. That’s something completely different from what I’m talking about. I’m talking about a Literary Road Trip.
I’ve been in your blogs, messin’ up your stats. Last wednesday, the first day open for nominations for this year’s Book Blogger Appreciation Week, I was on your blog, and then poof! I was off again. I came from Google Reader, from Google Search, from links throughout the interwebs. I affected your bounce rates, I’m sure. But it was not in vain! It was for a good cause! I was getting my nomination on for the Second Annual Blogger Appreciation week! I was copying links to your home pages, memes, and best posts.
I am happy to announce that I will be giving away a copy of Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin!
