"An e-reader has about the same carbon footprint as thirty-six books, snd most people get a new one every three years. If you read more than thirteen books a year, unless you're walking or cycling to check them out from a public library, digital books are better for the planet." #booksky 📚💙

Fun fact: The opening of Iron Man 2 - where Tony is testifying in front of Congress - is beat for beat nearly *identical* to this "Rearden's Trial" scene in Atlas Shrugged. :) youtu.be/yc8qbcIMZVg?...

Happy Atlas Shrugged Day! This is the day that Rand first began writing the book 80 yrs ago today - and is also the date the book opens on. (No idea at all that I'm a fan of the book. I certainly do NOT have one of its subheadings literally tattooed on my wrist... ;) ) #BookSky 📚💙

I'm going to cop out and call it a three way tie between Ideal Life by Evelyn Skye, To Kill A Poet by Onwe Arinze, and Hand Of The Nazarene by Randy Moon. All are atypical, even within their spaces, and all present stories you rarely find, certainly presented as they are. 🙂

18 books in August brings me to 129 on the year, currently on track for ~194 for 2026. (If I get *that* close, I'll likely push for 200+.) Some strong contenders this month... and some duds too. Best of the month...

Some will claim that datacenters and AI should be limited or outright banned or fearmonger over “AI IS DESTROYING BOOKS!” Here, I make a case that digitization and AI are essential to the future of human knowledge via the preservation of older knowledge and experience. bookanon.com/posts/2026/0...

I'm not talking about image generation at all here. Not directly, at bare minimum. This was more specifically about novel writing, though to be fair, a lot of its points could likely apply to image creation as well. But that wasn't my original intention here. :)

Was publishing under a “full fledged assault” from human slop 15 ish yrs ago when KDP came online - or was it a further democratization of storytelling that allowed stoytellers to escape the gatekeepers and have a more equal opportunity to get their stories out to the general public? #BookSky 📚💙

My 2018 Paperwhite (10th edition) is the most recent one I'm now getting rid of due to being out of support... But the one that hurts the most is most definitely my old Oasis. :(

#BookSky 📚💙If you have a lot of Kindle devices (like I do), check them. A **lot** of them are no longer supported. (Meaning they are essentially hacker’s devices now.) Not just the 15+ yr old ones…
