Question Mark

Ask Us Anything

I’ve been meaning to create a FAQ page for a while now. I answer questions about FVBR frequently and I thought it would be nice to have an area on the blog where I could consolidate these questions and answers and hopefully help some people out. I had a whole list in my head…until I [...]

Anthologies: Yes Please, No Thanks, What’s An Anthology?

Never Again. NEVER!

I was browsing through my twitter stream a few days ago, following a conversation about someone’s DNF (did not finish) shelf at GoodReads. The tweeter said she keeps a DNF shelf so she can keep track of what author’s books to avoid in the future. Someone else said that once they add a book to [...]

Keeping Track Of Books – How I Do It

Earlier today I posted my Monthly Reading Roundup where I list all the books I read (or listened to) during the previous month. I always enjoy doing that post because I love stats and it’s fun to look back on the month at what I read. Being a bit of a stats hound I’m always [...]
