Audible stats for 2021
Levar Burton Reads
Best Reads from Lately
Which are pretty soon from the last post like this. But, in my disorganized notes, I found a whole stack that I’d meant to post (hopefully I haven’t already?), so, with them, yeah, there’s already a few here. I’ll put some “####” down where the breakover point is from recovered/unlost ones to “new” ones.

2022’s soundtrack
I mean, for me. Started dialing up music videos last night about 1:30 in the morning, I guess. Then, just now, had the bright idea to pull my watch-history up, add them all, in the same order, to a playlist. Which I think I’ll now use to write a novel; I like this progression, these songs.
Anyway, here’s me about halfway through those music videos:
Best of 2021
Novel
Plural. Because: two is always better. And, both of these are doorstoppers, too. Doorstoppers I didn’t want to go over, whose labyrinths I’m still plunging through, faster and faster:
Poetry
It came out in 2020, but I only read it in January or so of 2021. Stuck with me all year. And I’ll probably be reading it again. Which is to say: I agree with the Pulitzer committee:
Fight Scene
A new category, but this scene warrants it:
Best of 2021 so far: for December
S&S and Chainsaw
Nothing cooler than having your publisher very much behind your book:
Chainsaw avalanche, part the thirteenth
No time today to pretty this up, so, gonna be a mix of embeds and links:
