I'm listing here some of the blogs I have previously sidebarred but that appear to be no longer active. Because I don't want to completely erase them, I have a fondness for many of them, and there they still are in the ether, occasionally still inspiring the direction of my reading and writing.
Asylum
Bookpuddle
Caravana de recuerdos
Maud Newton (moved to Substack, but not so recently active)
MobyLives (still out there, man, but evolved into a more polished marketing vehicle with a slightly different flavour)
(Oh, TypePad blogs are no longer.)
Pages Turned
Pechorin's Journal
Robert Pinsky Poetry Forum (a beast of a different nature that possibly never belonged here)
Tony's Book World
Waggish
I loved you all. I'm delighted to find others still active. You used to be my every morning.
