Little Lov'n Monday

Little Lov'n Monday is a day we celebrate the work of fellow bloggers. Between now and Wednesday, post a link to an article, contest, interview, poem- anything you think deserves a little lov'n. Leave a link and be entered in LLM Giveaway. Deadline is August 21th. I'll leave this open to readers outside of the US and Canada, but instead of shipping a book, I'll email you a gift card. It's too costly for me to ship beyond Canada. On the fourth Saturday of each month, I'll announce a winner and will provide a list of books the winner may choose from.

Commit to visiting 5 blogs and leaving comments. If you do that, let us know. You might not care about winning a book, but I'm thinking you're a cool person who cares. Tell us that you shared some love. Thanks.

Paper on White privilege in children's publishing by Laura Atkins (comments wanted)

I loved this post by science fiction writer Hal Duncan. Not only because it takes a stance against homophobia, but also because he explains what is also my own ethical system so well.

Ana,
Thanks. Adding it.

This is a poem that I wrote: http://kilama.deviantart.com/art/2-Love-108582477

I think it's kind of got deep meaning and that people can relate to it and it can have a different meaning for people.

Thanks for linking to Laura's post--folks need to scroll all the way down for the link to her BLOG, since that's where the comments can be left...

Amy Bodden Bowllen is trying to start a national campaign called Writers Against Racism:

Keep the links coming. Please do read and comment. Wouldn't hurt to promote LLM while you're there either. :-)

Thanks,

I love reading Bookshipper's Musings on Owning a Used Bookstore! There are seven of them so far and I think more people should read them: http://bookshipper.blogspot.com/search?q=MUSINGS+on+OWNING+A+USED+BOOKSTORE
