Winter break is just about over, and it’s been so busy here that I missed announcing the anniversary of Monster Librarian! Our original site went live on January 1, 2006, just three months after the Monster Kid made his entrance into this world. I mean, why not add a brand new book review website to the mix when you already have your hands full with a baby? That image above is our first logo (and my favorite), designed by Dave May.<\/p>\n
We’re looking forward to Women in Horror Month and the upcoming Stoker nominations this spring, and the new Summer Scares pilot summer reading program debuting this year.\u00a0 I’d love to know what you’d like to see more of from us, because time is precious, both yours and mine.<\/p>\n
I’m also really hoping this will be the year you make a contribution to Monster Librarian. We are advertisement free, and you can trust our content’s integrity. We are an Amazon affiliate, but either folks are not clicking on those book covers in our reviews and making purchases through the site or Amazon’s algorithm has decided not to credit us for the sale. While our hosting fees are covered for now, paying to keep the site up is a recurring issue. You can just click on that “Contribute” button in the top right hand box at the top of this page and make a contribution through Paypal to keep us going. Note that Monster Librarian is not a nonprofit, so it’s not tax deductible, but your five bucks makes a difference in whether we can keep going. I know it’s a tragedy to skip your caffiene fix (I was in a coffee shop yesterday where the small “signature” latte was five dollars on the dot, I kid you not) but your sacrifice of your vanilla honey amaretto latte will be deeply appreciated here.<\/p>\n
Is there something you’d like to see, or like to see more of here? Shoot me an email at\u00a0monsterlibrarian@monsterlibrarian.com\u00a0<\/a>and let me know your thoughts. Here’s hoping for a monstrously lucky thirteenth year for both Monster Librarian and all of you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Winter break is just about over, and it’s been so busy here that I missed announcing the anniversary of Monster Librarian!
