Education supports memory. It helps combat indifference, hatred, Holocaust denial & distortion.

We remember you Femmy.

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

28 January 1936 | A Dutch Jewish girl, Femmy Rika Keijzer, was born in Zwolle.

In October 1942 she was deported to #Auschwitz and, after selection, murdered in a gas chamber. Her parents - Semmie and Sophia - also perished in the camp.

Hey @Duotrope!
I know writers pay for your service.
Is there a fee for publishers to be listed with you?

I can't find any info about that on your webpage, and your contact options don't fit to ask this question to you directly.

I am doing final proof-reading on Lintusen Press's September release of GHOSTLY, a collection of spooky stories coming just in time for Halloween.

I support this choice, though Friendly Giant would have been a very close second.
Thanks Ernie Coombs for years of imagination!
I took my daughter to see his stage show in Prince George in the 90s. He was in his 60s and bounced around that stage.

My @goodreads reading goal for 2024 is 200 books.
I met the goal with yesterday's read: @KelleyArmstrong's The Boy Who Cried Bear.

Since Aug 22 was Day 234 of the year, I've apparently slipped from reading a book a day. Oh well.

What are you reading?
