- 25 Things Writers Should Know About Conferences and Conventions
- Portal Fantasy: Threat or Menace? I had no idea that books that are explicitly portal fantasies aren’t really being acquired anymore.
- RedHeadedGirl Reviews Fabio’s Viking So glad I never read these books back in the day.
- Five Ways to Know If Book Reviews are Fake Except, well, as discussed earlier this week in comments here it’s not always possible to know if a book review in a publication is genuine or not.
- The Love Story of J. Alfred Capslock
- Finland, Where Reading is a Superpower
- The Vine, Robert Herrick 17th century tentacle porn poetry!
- Louis and Lestat are a same-sex couple with a child Anne Rice talks with Kaila Hale-Stern at io9 about the graphic novel adaptation of Interview with a Vampire told from Claudia’s perspective.
