- Maggie Stiefvater with a butt-kicking post about questions that writers can only answer for themselves.
- Someone has reposted the entire Sci Fiction archive without permission. Ellen Datlow has links and contact info for writers who would like their stories removed.
- The real missing link? Her name is Ardi.
- Both Colleen Mondor and Sara Zarr offer some perspective on banned books week and crimes involving young women. (If you are defending Roman Polanski, just UGH. What is wrong with you? You like rich people's privilege that much?)
- Alana Joli offers some interesting thoughts about urban fantasy, and then about literature and genre fiction and the Great Divide.

- Jeff Ford recently asked for his blog readers' favorite ghost stories (short story length) for a top ten he's compiling for a class he's teaching this semester. You could do worse than reading any of the resulting stories. Any you'd add?
- Speaking of which, Ron Charles gives a good review to Audrey Niffenegger's just-out Her Fearful Symmetry, and offers a round-up of this year's best creepy, literary-flavored reads so far.
- The Elizabeth Taylor biography sounds like the chronicle of an absolute nutcaseSPLENDID.
