Friday Reads: ‘Fragility, sound and silence’
*The week in review on my channel:*
Zooming In: Clutter Schmutter - A chat with James on the joys and perils of an overstuffed library: youtu.be/QsQeibgTILY?si=_EgT6yyA-uGb18gk
A Reckoning: Shawn the Book Maniac downsizes his current reads: youtube.com/watch?v=HgHBG7yLP_Q&t=69s
Wee Book Haul: youtu.be/XQIvtdi8YZo?si=1cSCmvcJ-HjIjQjY
Voices from Inside the Blue House: Writers in Collaboration reading (organized by Meredith Hambrock), 25 April at 7 PM at the SaskTel Theatre at the Remai: remaimodern.org/events-gatherings/voices-from-inside-the-blue-house-writers-in-collaboration
I’m now putting mystery guest webpages and books they’ve written near the bottom of my show notes, so that you might better resist the temptation to peek. 😜 (This also means that books authored by mystery guests will not be in the regular book list or time stamps but in that separate section farther down.)
