If you’ve been following my Twitter and/or Facebook updates lately, you know that I’ve been guest-blogging over at USA Today’s “Pop Candy” all week, filling in for the excellent Whitney Matheson, who’s out on maternity leave. Whitney’s a true gem in the online scene, and I’m honored to help her out and spend some time with her readers.
But just in case you didn’t know all of that, well… now you do.
You can catch up with what I’ve been up to in Whitney’s absence by heading over to the Pop Candy blog, but here are some of the highlights:
- Guest blogger Rick Marshall checks in
- Harvey Pekar statue to be dedicated Oct. 14
- Banned Books Week: the comics edition
I’ve been posting three stories each day, with a daily “Early Buzz” roundup of noteworthy news from my various nerd-tastic feeds. Make sure to head over to Pop Candy to see what else I come up with this week.
Oh, and if you’re one of regular Pop Candy readers who arrived here from USA Today, welcome! I’ve already made a point of telling Whitney how much I like the community she’s developed on Pop Candy, and I thank you for being so decent to the new kid on the block.
