I don’t know whether I’ve already mentioned that I’ve become a Zionist. To me, it means, in short, that I now consciously and strongly feel that I am a Jew, and proud of it. My primary aim is to go to Palestine.
—Hannah Senesh (1921-44), diary entry, October 27, 1938
Seen at Fire in My Heart: The Story of Hannah Senesh, at the Museum of Jewish Heritage, New York City.
Step right up, folks! The January Jewish Book Carnival is now online. Hosted this month by the Association of Jewish Libraries, the Carnival provides a plethora of Jewish book-related links to peruse and enjoy.
So, as I mentioned yesterday, I’ve been hard at work preparing for the blog tour for my short-story collection, Quiet Americans. And it so happens that I’ve been receiving a number of questions about planning such tours.
True to form, I’ve been pointing my questioners to various links and websites to help them become more familiar with the idea and practice. Now, I have a new resource to share: Sandra Beckwith’s guest post for The Savvy Book Marketer.
It’s a post filled with good tips, and it’s exactly the sort of thing I would have appreciated back at the start of my own planning process.
On that note, here’s wishing you all a good weekend. See you back here on Monday for the start of an especially exciting week!
