- The FeedLand blogroll on Drummer blogs was a snip to set up. Here is mine. Looks very nice imo. I've not been blogging via drummer for a year, but Dave says there is a WordPress plugin in the works. #
- I've had my feedland blogroll on my WordPress site in a couple of different ways, via Jan's plugin on the sidebar and my own script on a page. This is more interesting. Like Frank, I hope I can get the blogroll on it's own page on my WordPress site. I am also just dumping my whole FeedLand list at the moment. I think I'd want to edit that down for a blog roll, perhaps missing out the more obvious links in favour of folk who I interact with. #
- I've had a blogroll on my site for most of its existence. There seems to be a bit of a resurgence at the moment. Hopefully this will lead to a more open and connected web. Dave's version expands the concept from a list of links towards a feed reader experience. I am wondering if it is heading towards the way Ton's feedreader seems to work. As it stands it is a great way to get reference links while writing.#
- Finally I and enjoying writing this post in Drummer, and am going to post it to my WordPress blog with a script Frank shared.#

A re-read, from 9 years ago. I love the narrator’s voice, funny & smart. A tricksy telling that worked even though I knew the twist.Read: Harlem Shuffle by Colson Whitehead ★★★★★📚

Lighter than The Nickel Boys.I was expecting something akin to Chester Himes but this was gentler, more thoughtful & a more absorbing read. Politics handled lightly. I hope Ray, keeps out of trouble, if not I want to read about it.Read Painting Time by Maylis de Kerangal ★★★★☆ 📚

An introduction, for me, to a strange artistic world painting trompe-l’œil. Lovely long sentences. The heroine has a ‘lazy’ eye looking two ways at once. The eye recalls Dory Previn – The Holy Man on Malibu Bus Number 3
