Some 'new-new' updates to the newsletter and some other fun bits.

One of the first things which always happens when I send out the monthly events newsletter is: I immediately learn of several things coming up which I didn’t include in the newsletter. For the events, I did go back and add them to the October newsletter — search for “NEW-NEW”.

And, along with those event updates, a couple more fun bits along the way today:

2. Stephen Messer’s just-out book for young readers, The Death of Yorik Mortwell, got a nice review at Libary Journal.
