Thanks for these recommendations, Susie! For people trying to figure out what to DO about our current horrific political situation, I recommend Chris Armitage's Existential Republic.
I mean, this particular month I will focus on the “famous” — then I will go back to my obscure choices for my next round of recommendations! Or maybe I will have more of a mix. But I’m glad i highlighted my successful favorites this time, because I can already see from my blog data, that many of you are discovering them for the first time, just like I once did!
Although I read Dr. Richardson on the regular, few are the instances when I hit the same wavelength as she. A week after the Podcaster Incident I turned to my partner and asked "Is it just me, or are the newspapers of record of the United States spending entirely too much time on the shooting of a media personality?" When Richardson turned her priorities to which events were really important on the planet I was quite pleased.
After hearing your reading of the Veronca excerpt (a discovery for me), well, I have to give myself some time to let it sink in completely---not only in terms for Veronca's life in wartime France but in my life as well.
"Today in Fascism" immediately got my attention. Y'know, you're overloading my backlogged "to be read" list. I'm tryin' to write a novel oveh heah! (Actually, it's almost complete)
I hope you're not perturbed with me because that recent e-mail reply was more than a rebellion-fiery. I'm one of those pesky passionate Sagittarians, after all.
Thank you for the beautiful reading, and the plethora of recommendations. I guess I
ll have to give up sleeping.

I was just reading Chris’s column last night! Yes, indeed.
This was so good. I love hearing your beautiful voice talk of Sage's beautiful voice..., and that story!
Oh yes, you’re one of the luckies who knows what a treat it is to know Sage and his stage presence! We look forward to it every weekend.
Why 'this month only'. We love your criticism, even blurb-length. And... where in god's name do you find time time???
Also, I do not have the time and I’m always feeling guilty and absurd for dropping one ball or another.
as long as you are doing some prioritizing on which balls you drop...that's how I (try) to keep sane...

Are any of these folks new to you? Who are your mainstays?
What a day.
Jeeeezziz Susie! An embarrassment of riches! A treasure trove of diamonds in the cut!! I am now very busy — for a while!
