Saturday Review 5-2-09: This week around the blogiverse
Bulletin Board Mothers’ Day (or is it Mother’s Day? Why am I unsure?) is a week from tomorrow, and I’m planning several posts that spotlight moms next week – two book reviews, some observations on issues both of those books discuss, and a look at some notable literary mothers. I think it’s my first official Theme Week on The 3 R’s, and I hope you’ll check it out! New arrivals in Google Reader Le Shallow […]
Saturday Review 4-25: This week around the blogiverse
The links are a little sparse this week, folks – my apologies. It has been Hell Week at work, and it’s probably going to last longer than just a week; we’re in the midst of two separate audits, which has made for some long days and led to the use of the “mark all as read” button in Google Reader a few times. I’ve gone to UCLA for the Festival of Books today – I’ll […]

It’s tentatively scheduled for July 18-19 in Portland, OR.

Saturday Review 2-28-09
Bulletin Board ** This week’s announcement is actually me asking for a favor. ** The agenda for BlogHer’09 will include some member-programmed sessions under the umbrella “A Room of Your Own,” and the session that I have proposed was one of three featured this week on BlogHer.com. I’d love to see a Room for the book-blogging community: “Book Bloggers: So Many Words, So Little Time.” There’s no guarantee that it will get on to the […]
Saturday Review 2-21-09
I feel like the linkage is a little sparse this week, folks. Between work and that little distraction we had on Monday, I’ve just about been keeping up – so it won’t take you quite as long to catch up on the randomness here :-). And just in case you were wondering – my pinky finger is almost recovered, and most of our aches and sore spots are about gone, but a few bruises linger. […]
Saturday Review: Valentine’s Day edition
Just to give y’all a heads-up: there may be a drop-off in the posting pace around here during the next few weeks. The Busy Season (audit time) is coming around at work, and considering that, my family, and other responsibilities, I may have to cut back my appearances here at The 3 R’s from six days a week to three or four. This does NOT make me happy, but I do value my mental health […]
