The Tuesday List At The End of the Universe

by Elisa

Welcome to this week’s Tuesday List. This is my last list of this sort (for this blog, anyway), so I thought that a bit of Douglas Adams would be appropriate. Once I get my library’s blog off of the ground (which should be some time in November *fingers crossed*) I’ll let JM know so that she can pass along the info. Thanks for all of your participation during Banned Book Week. It amazing how many books have been banned or challenged, and often it’s not the book you would expect.

Right then, on to the usual stuff:

Reminders: This is your last chance to send me submissions for “Favorite Reading Spots. So why not send me yours? Where do you prefer to read?

My version of The Monday Game (a.k.a. A Book By Any Other Name) ends this week, whether we reach the goal or not. Don’t miss your last chance to make me write that poem. I’m told that JM is planning on continuing the game, so don’t worry. But I expect that the prize will change.

The list of items I am currently reading:

The Writer’s Complete Fantasy Reference by Writer’s Digest Books - Not to self: add this to your birthday list.

Bird by Bird by Ann Lamott - I’m reading along at Fiction Scribe. I’m still behind, but I’m working on it.

Organizing from the Inside Out by Julie Morgenstern - I’m still on chapter one. I need to get some more of this read.

Sink Reflections by Marla Cilley - My mail spot is organized and my sink is clean more often.

Doctor Who: Creatures and Demons by Justin Richards - I should be finishing this one tonight.

Mental_Floss (Sept./Oct. ‘07) - I love this magazine. Nearly done.

Oh, hey! I would like to remind you all that The Book Stacks is up for a Blogger’s Choice Award, so if you would be so kind as to pop along and vote for me, I’d be much obliged…and so would JM.
