Hi, #readers!
I thumbed through my BEST AMERICAN SHORT STORIES for the end of #shortstorymonth and found a lot of very interesting ephemera I'd used as bookmarks.

Y'all know me. I thought, "How cool!"
So, I've created a thing: #EphemeralBookmark

Let's post & hashtag our favorite curious bookmarks!

Welp. #ShortStoryMonth has drawn to a close. I'm sharing my pride and joy: my BEST AMERICAN SHORT STORIES collection.

I've asked for BASS as a birthday/Christmas gift for years and years and years. My first was the 1989 volume, guest edited by Margaret Atwood, and the series ed was Shannon Ravenel!
