All posts by trav

At the heart of it all, I’m a fan. A fan of books and bookstores. A fan of fiction and non-fiction. A fan of authors and publishers. And most of all I’m a fan of great conversations sparked by books. All that to say - I really need more bookshelves.

B’ham Book Forum

I just found a book-centric forum buried in al.com. It’s still active with just a handful of posts each month. But it’s been running since 2002. Good to know that Birmingham has things like this out there. I just wish they weren’t so hard to find!

Heller’s home

Steven Heller, art director of the NY Times has started a new site. Lots of great books and articles now. Not to mention podacasts of some of his lectures.

There’s a section for a blog. But it’s flagged “coming soon!”. I hate when people do that. If it’s not ready now. Then don’t put it in there. I guess we’ll just have to see how well Heller maintains. And if the blog ever comes to be.
