Writing-related resources, news, and reflections to peruse over the weekend.
It’s not every day that a novelist appears on the cover of TIME magazine.
Let the arguments begin: In “The 50 Best Memoirs of the Past 50 Years,” The New York Times’s book critics identify “the most outstanding memoirs published since 1969.”
I’ve got lots of podcast episodes queued up (I’m behind!), but one that I did manage to listen to recently—from the New Books Network’s poetry channel—features my book-promo client John Sibley Williams.
Speaking of poetry: Meet Kara Jackson, 2019 National Youth Poet Laureate.
And over on the My Machberet blog, there’s a fresh batch of Jewish-lit links.
Happy weekend! (Subscribers, your July issue of The Practicing Writer should be in your e-mailbox by the end of the weekend. Not yet a subscriber? There’s a page for that.)
