Happy bookish birthdays (24 September) to…

• F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby) (at AmazonSmile: benefit a non-profit of your choice by shopping*)
• Horace Walpole (The Castle of Otranto) (at AmazonSmile*)
• Jan Carew (Black Midas) (at AmazonSmile*)
• John Brunner (Stand on Zanzibar) (at AmazonSmile*)
• John Kessel (The Moon and the Other) (at AmazonSmile*)

* I am linking to the same thing at the regular Amazon site, and at AmazonSmile. When you shop at AmazonSmile, half a percent of your purchase price on eligible items goes to a non-profit you choose. It will feel just like shopping at Amazon: you’ll be using your same account. The one thing for you that is different is that you pick a non-profit the first time you go (which you can change whenever you want)…and the good feeling you’ll get.  Shop ’til you help!
