Gail Carriger<\/p><\/div>\n

First up, some personal library goodness, via Paranormal-Steampunk author, Gail Carriger<\/a> (who may be coming to our part of the world this year, I believe) and the site Apartment Therapy<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Curl Up in One of These Cozy Libraries”<\/a><\/h4>\n

Wouldn’t you love a library like these? I know I would!<\/p>\n

Psst: I really liked this too:<\/p>\n

17 Ways To Squeeze In A Few Extra Books<\/a><\/h4>\n

—<\/p>\n

\"Turner<\/a>In quite a change of pace, I found this article by Garett Reppenhagen on Salon extremely thought provoking:<\/p>\n

“I Was An American Sniper, And Chris Kyle’s War Was Not My War”<\/a><\/h4>\n

(I’ve put it against the image of Brian Turner’s Phantom Noise<\/em><\/strong> because I think the two are complementary in terms of themes.)<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

Linda Herrick’s\u00a0 feature interview with Christchurch-based Crime writer, Paul Cleave<\/strong><\/a>, was also interesting:<\/p>\n

Death Becomes Him<\/a><\/h4>\n

(Btw, we share a friend-in-common: the Paul mentioned in the article.)<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

\"lewiscarroll_letterwriting\"<\/a>And I loved this, via the wonderful Brain Pickings<\/a> site:<\/p>\n

Lewis Carroll’s Rules Of Letter Writing<\/a><\/p>\n

which Maria Popova believes would make email more civil and digital communication kinder—and I suspect she is very right!<\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

And I think that will do for this week!<\/p>\n
