But the Book of the Day has been continuing in my absence from this place.
Catch up. Stop in for the first time. I don't care. It's about the Book of the Day, nothing else.

@margaretwhitford.bsky.social Checking in around here... I'm not here as often as perhaps I should be.
Say hi!

Treat yourself to something new to read.

...and the Book of the Day is up.
Reading is resistance, and I've got two ways for you to get involved... the Book of the Day and the @blythebookspgh.bsky.social PBS fundraiser.

Oh! Forgot to mention that the Book of the Day is up.
I'm always looking for more bookish good trouble to cause with this series, so if you fit the criteria (and there's a link to every Book of the Day so you can see it all), hit me up.
