One last reminder that the two ARCs of Alcestis I’m giving away on GoodReads will only be up for another day — the giveaway ends at midnight on the 15th. As I write this post, more than 1100 people have signed up for the giveaway, in fewer than ten days. That is, quite frankly, crazypants. And it makes me very happy!

A few other links I found today, before I get back to dissertating:

• Justine Larbalestier gives great advice on how to conduct an interview with an author.
• An equally interesting article by Bob Thompson about writing about writers.
• Did you know there were Floating Chapels in New York City in the latter half of the 19th century? (via Holly Tucker on Twitter)
• A book of essays on Joyce Carol Oates’s brilliant and much anthologized short story “Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?“
