A pack horse librarian delivering books in rural Kentucky in 1938. During the Great Depression, the Pack Horse Library Project was a Works Progress Administration (WPA) program in which the librarians, who were often called "book women" or "book ladies," delivered books to remote parts of Appalachia.

AI-generated books on Amazon now have the potential to kill people, as they've moved into the realm of mushroom foraging. Guides have popped up like, well, mushrooms, packed with information that makes no sense and could easily be dangerous, illustrated with structures that are "the mycological equivalent of a picture of a hot blond with six fingers and too many teeth," writes Vox's Constance Grady. Here's more.

In the most glorious "fuck you" I have seen in a while, you know the book that Cumberland City Council banned because they're homophobic bigots - Holly Duhig's "A focus on Same Sex Parents"? Well, the publisher, BookLife Publishing, have made a PDF version of the book available for free.
Sure be a shame if it was shared far and wide now, wouldn't it?
Every time you ban a book filled with hope and kindness, and care and love, we will resist.

Y'ALL.
FINALLY.
MY NEWEST BOOK IS OUT. 😃🥳🎶💃😁
THE ACCURSED is my first ever solidly YA fantasy novel & I am SO excited to share this adventure with you!
Teen heroine Elfled is the only "unBlessed" member of her family--never a problem until they flee political persecution. Without magical skills to see her through, Elfled has only wits & hopes in her fight to resist the forces driving her squarely into Evil's lair.

“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
― Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy

finished reading Enemy of God 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
by Bernard Cornwell.
The Saxons threaten to overrun Briton; a search for a legendary artifact to bring back the Old Gods; a little blissful romance; Lancelot is a backstabbing, cowardly bastard; oaths, what are they good for? A touch more magic than in the first book, but just as hard, dirty & cynical.

Some new translations of my books are now out and available! Taiwanese translation of all the Little Shop of Nightmares-books and the Grumblebelly Cat are out, as well as the Norwegian Horned God, Hornguden.
Hornguden is translated by Morten Abildsnes, but I'm afraid I'm unable to tell you who translated the Taiwanese books since I can't read the characters. 😔
20 books that have had an impact on who you are. One book a day for 20 days. No explanations, no reviews, just book covers.
Day 1
I wish old books were properly digitised and available as ePubs.
My brain suddenly had a hankering to read "The Intergalactic Omniglot".
It seems there's only a 2nd hand paper-version for sale 😢
Also - isn't it cool how the kid on the cover has a foldable device? Pretty cool for 1988.
It's time for a few #WalrusTech series announcements.
The 2nd book in the series, The Aurora's Pale Light, will be launching on November 29th, 2024.
If you'd like to get a glimpse at the cover, watch this space! The cover art will be revealed on September 11th, 2024, with pre-orders announced shortly thereafter.
Tell all your #bookreader friends and lovers of dark #sciencefiction.

Hallo alle!
Ich bin nicht #neuhier aber möchte ein bisschen meine Bubble auffrischen.
Gerade bin ich eher leise, meistens gibt's von mir Geschichten aus dem Alltag oder Gedanken zum aktuellen Zeitgeschehen und zur Gesellschaft. Mein Problem ist, ich will alles wissen. 😂
Sagt gerne hallo. Ich bin auch interessiert an Lebensrealitäten, die anders sind als meine.

“Being a #queer, Chicané/Mexican storyteller writing queer, Chicané/Mexican stories for young people isn’t the easiest job in the world for a lot of reasons.”

Apparently Libertarian Marxism is a thing. And I must say Iike it!
#amreading Yanis Varoufakis - Techno Feudalism: What killed capitalism
Everyone should read this book. Especially MAGA. But they won’t, since they have been emotionally programmed to think neoliberalism is capitalism & Marx’s economic theories only apply to communism.
