A Book Reviewers Meme?
July 30th, 2009 by Alan Chudnow
While I’m still not quite sure what a “meme” actually is or if it applies in this particular case, John Ottinger’s project of compiling a collection of blogs devoted to reviewing Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror books is certainly worth noting. Rather than tracking down each blog himself, Ottinger asked the readers of his own review blog Grasping for the Wind to take his list, add themselves and post it to their site allowing him to update his own list with each new back link. The first “edition” of the collection was created late last year and consists of literally hundreds of reviewing sites.
Mr. Ottinger is currently collecting an updated list. Submissions will be accepted until August 16, 2009. If you run a blog or web site that reviews SF/F/H books and would like to be included you can register your site using the form on the GftW post SF/F/H Book Reviewers Linkup Meme, 2nd Edition Submissions. The original list appears at the bottom of the post.
