So I now have a LibraryThing! Right now, it's just the books I have up in Bellingham (which is, um, more than I thought), but you can go and check that out and add me if you have one and stuff. YAY BOOKS. :D

And this is my signal boosting on sophie_448's post on her recent experience with Zazzle and copyright infringement claims. It's not even about this ( Read more... )
