Good morning everyone! I am sad to say I have not yet ventured out to see the new Harry Potter movie, even though I love the series in both book and film form. We were hoping to go this morning in an effort to avoid the crowds, but work and life have gotten in the way. We may go this afternoon, but more likely, we will wait until next weekend, until more people have seen it and the theater is less crowded.

I had some serious issues with copyright infringement this week, and while I won’t go into them in detail here, I may be doing another post in my copyright infringement series – just as a reminder that the series as a whole is still there on my blog, if you need a resource, as well as some new tips I’ve learned as I’ve been submitting.

You may be wondering where my Shelving Books series has gone as of late, and it’s a good question! While it’s partially that I have less time to blog, and as a result, I’ve been neglecting it, there’s also another reason I haven’t been writing it recently. I’ve gotten a gig writing at WETA inReads (for those of you who don’t know, in my day life, I am a full-time freelance writer and editor), and the feature I write every week is called Out Now! In this feature, I profile books that came out in the previous week, and as a result, there’s a large overlap between it and Shelving Books. I’ll link to my Out Now! pieces in my Sunday Salon posts in the future, since I don’t know when I’ll have the time to bring back Shelving Books.

  1. Congrats on the new job!

    Never Knowing is not my normal type of read, but a few interesting posts lead me to add it to my library holds when I saw it on the new book list.

  3. I was lurking on Twitter a couple of days ago (one of my favorite hobbies) and I saw the trouble you were having with one particular blogger copying most of what they were posting! What the hell? I just don’t get it. And way to go on the new job. You are my idol.
