  • Gigging the Long Tail

    About to start live blogging this book project, pivoting off working title Every Job I Ever Had, now a subtitle. Premise is to review changes in late 20th Century employment and job roles.

  • Was putting The Best Laid Plans by Sidney Sheldon in my Little Free Library, then noticed the back cover Promo:

    HE WANTED POWER. SHE WANTED REVENGE.

    Now I need to read this Presidential Campaign Thriller as it echoes current headlines.

  • All the Little Free Library books were taken overnight. Happens once a year somehow. My faith in humanity is dinged, while my hope for literacy carries on. Libraries forever!

  • 1,000 Books served at our Longfellow Villa Little Free Library since 2002. Thanks to neighbors who share & read. Books logged with Library Thing displayed on site at Longfellow.Life

  • LFL

    Didn’t realize how much I depend on LibraryThing on a daily basis until I couldn’t scan my Little Free Library additions yesterday. Why a DDOS attack against them??? They’re back up today, and we’ve now logged 927 books over 1-1/2 years.
