My next short story collection read is The Haunted Trail: Classic Tales of the Rambling Weird. Another in the British Library "Tales of the Weird" series. This one is edited by Weird Walk.

An eerie yellow on black background drawing of a path winding through spooky looking plants and trees into the distance. The atmosphere is very foreboding.

I discovered today there is a "Waiting For You" zine dedicated to TV series The Detectorists. Issues 3 and 4 are still in print to buy and PDFs of issues 1-4 are available to buy. All available from the publisher directly.

There is also a short semi academic book about the series, Landscapes of Detectorists. For a while it was out of print, and I was waiting for it to come back into print. Now ordered, plus the zines. More info.

Current main reading August 2022.

Still reading Wheel of Time book 4 (so long!), Track Changes history of word processing, and Loren Wiseman RPG columns. Newly reading Shadowlands book about lost villages etc, Shelf Respect, and The Housekeeper and the Professor a Japanese novel.

I am enjoying the Wheel of Time book a lot, but it is taking ages to read. It is almost the longest book in the series by far, only narrowly beaten for page count by one other.

Track Changes feels overwritten in places so I am skipping bits, but there are some real gems.

The Loren Wiseman book continues to delight.

Shadowlands looks fantastic, an in depth visit to a number of lost villages, towns and cities across Britain.

Shelf Respect isn’t deep at all, full of reading anecdotes, lists etc, but appeals to bibliophile me.

And the Japanese novel is a read for the book group run by an Aussie booktuber I follow. Looks good.
