I’ve been rather under the weather this week (those reviews were thankfully pre-scheduled!) so haven’t been around the blogs as much as I’d have liked… but I’m still going to rustle up a few links and whatnot for you.
1.) The Persephone Prize – have you entered? Are you going to? I suppose we should keep these things strictly confidential, so I shall just say that Mum and I have both entered (or are planning on entering) – the mother vs son competition starts right here!
2.) There are lots of Shiny New Books reviews of mine that I’ve not pointed to yet, but I’ll stick one in here that isn’t a date for A Century of Books (which I have officially given up finishing this year, but which will be finished eventually): Bed Manners, a spoof etiquette guide from the 1930s. It’s every bit as fun as that sounds.
3.) Early announcement that My Life in Books will be coming back soon(ish)! I’ve had most of the answers in, so I need to chase some people and match up some partners (which I usually do earlier, but… not this time.)
Oh I might have entered the contest if I'd heard about it before now, but then, if you and your mum are entering, what chance would anyone else have??? ;-)
