Tuesday’s Literary Briefing

Pondering The Cosmos

Someone brought books to work today to be given away. Please don’t think poorly of us for not being phased by David Balducci. Don’t think of us as a snob for ignoring Clive Cussler. And don’t call us obnoxiously high brow for disregarding Brad Thor. Hell, we love Carl Hiassen, and he ain’t winning a Nobel anytime soon. We have a cyberbox of literary giveaways for you this morning. Emily Dickinson’s father may have missed his daughter’s talents. Try these thoughts on Borges and the cosmos for free. John Brandon’s Citrus County raises hearts high, only to knock them down lower. Is the sonnet dead? And how long does it take you to write a novel? Help yourself.  – Andrew Geer
