Congratulations to everyone who participated in Dewey’s Readathon on Saturday. I was an unofficial participant and had a blast, including in my reading seven short stories – none of which were on my Deal Me In deck, though. Plus, I got the idea to put a Deal Me In twist on the next Readathon in October, when I think I may come up with a Euchre Deck of 24 stories to take up my Readathon reading. Anyone care to play along?

Below are links to new posts this week:
