A Bit of a Round Up and A Gorilla Librarian

by Elisa

Hello again. Today I’d like to acquaint you with some of the things that are happening on some of the blogs here in 451 Press.

I will begin with The Book Stacks because…well, I can. I am still accepting submissions of Favorite Reading Spots. Do you have a spot where you love to curl up and read? Why not tell me about it? Also, you have until 11:59pm tonight to participate in my “A Book By Any Other Name” Game. Will you manage to make me post my forfeit this week?

JM over at Fiction Scribe is interested in your Creative Spaces. Where do you do you writing? What about that space inspires you? She is also holding a discussion of Bird by Bird by Anne Lamott. This week, the discussion began with Chapter one. Stop by and join the discussion.

Kelly over at Tiny Treasury has been debating censorship this week. Why not stop by and weigh in on this controversial topic?

The theme this week on Write Anyway is gratitude. Write Anyway is a great place to go when you need a little something to jump start your writing.

And finally, I offer you a Monty Python skit featuring a Gorilla Librarian. It was too silly to resist. Have a great weekend!
