Each Friday, we share a handful of links we found interesting, provocative, funny or just plain cool. We call it In Our Feeds. Have a great weekend!
Helpful: tech-tools for writers, all of which are mostly free and online (the notable exception being the keyboard that mimcs an old-timey typewriter keyboard: SO SATISFYING).
Beautiful: here are some lovely photographs of children’s book illustrators at work in their studios. All of a sudden my office desk feels very artless.
Hilarious: Book or Beer? is a quiz where you guess: is this a book title or the name of a beer? I won’t tell you my score. It was bad.
Inspiring: In Seattle, a couple of librarians are pedaling books around the city! Kids can check out books or get a library card. So cool.
Polite: Speaking of libraries, this boy ripped a page in a library book and wrote a note. What a kid!
Delicious: A library-shaped cake that’s seriously amazing.
Confusing: Do we all agree on the meaning of these ed-tech terms? (Spoiler: no.)
Intoxicating: Harry Potter-themed-everything continues. In this edition, a bar!
Important: If you dare say it at all, are you pronouncing Voldemort’s name correctly?
Mobilizing: Hufflepuffs unite! There is a movement afoot.
Funny: The most popular books in U.S. public libraries, mapped by city. Ok, now all the books that aren't Go Set a Watchman or Girl on a Train.
Expansive: The Kindle Scout is going international.
And finally, educational: R.L. Stine’s Writing School.
