With the simultaneous arrival of the holiday rush and some unrelated projects, posting here will remain infrequent.

Over on the commerce site, I’m running a series of specials through the end of the year. The current sale is “Buy 1 Book, Get a 2nd Book of Equal or Lesser Value for 1/2 Price”. It’s a good deal, if awkwardly phrased. The details are here.

To soften that blatantly commercial plug, I’ll pass along this link to an archive of recordings of writer interviews by CBS Radio’s Don Swaim. These are 20-60 minute recordings from 1982-1993 that were originally edited down to little two-minute radio segments, so they include some ice-breaker questions and occasional unguarded comments. I haven’t heard anything too controversial though, unless you count Jonathan Raban loading his pipe.

Did I mention free Gift Wrap Service?
