The Living and the Dead movie download I’ve always said that a year of blogging is equal to about five-years in the real world. When I was editing/co-editing Torontoist weeks felt like months and months sometimes felt like years. Things moved quickly, and the blogasphere (even the local blogasphere) mushroomed out of control.

I feel a little like popular but not too popular soap opera star Susan Lucci, like Susan we were nominated repeatedly for an award (ok, twice. But it’s in blog years so you get the point) only to lose. Oh well, maybe next year.

Now, if you’ve never done so before and love illustration, animation and the drawing arts mouse on over to Drawn! You won’t be disappointed. And really, guys, congratulations. I mean it.

Grant’s come out with its new list of best young American authors. I read a lot of new Canadian authors but I do have a soft spot for the Yanks. But this list enrages me simply because I now have to get more of these books. In fact, on that entire list of 21 authors I’ve read the works of exactly two of them (Krauss and Foer). Mind you Nell Freudenberger’s work has been on the to-be-read pile for quite some time ditto Rattawut Lapcharoensap’s short story collection. The issue comes out in late April.

Every once in a while I get enamored with a publication. I can remember the first time I saw the Believer The Devil’s Brigade , or the first time I had my breath taken away by Wired. This is one of those times and that publication is LA-based Good magazine (a mag for people who give a damn). They even give 100% of their subscription fees to organizations like the Creative Commons, the WWF, UNICEF and others. The magazine makes me warm and fuzzy just thinking about it.

I missed their first issue, a tribute to America, at a time when it’s decidedly uncool to love America. Their second issue featured John Hodgman, a look at culture jamming and some really snappy and refreshing design. I’m waiting for issue 3 (the media issue) with baited breath.

Heather O’Neill and John K. Samson for winning the all-star edition of Canada Reads. Samson managed to outcharm Blue Rodeo’s Jim Cuddy and catapult Montreal’s O’Neill to some modicum of literary fame.

I thought Lullabies for Little Criminals had a good chance of winning it all along simply because Cuddy couldn’t charm his way into victory, like the last time when former Canada Reads juror Zsuzsi Gartner

could be seen making googly-eyes at him everytime he opened his mouth (who could blame her, he’s Jim Cuddy!). It also helped that he was defending the highly overrated Stanley Park Speak divx

If you haven’t had a chance to read Lullabies, pick it up. I’ll be writing a little more about it later this week and also put up an interview I did with the lovely Ms. O’Neill last fall. If you do buy it, try to find an edition without the rather garish, pink, and non-removable Canada Reads logo on it. Geez Harper Collins what were you thinking!
