It kills me that after 3 months of unemployment, I still haven't found a job. But what kills me more (if anything) is the above sign of information. Books...remember those things? Well I sure as hell do; they made up my childhood, transitioned into my adolescence, and made me the writer I am today. There is so much I could say (and will, in the future) on the closing of Philadelphia's free libraries but instead, I'll ask a favor.
Go to freelibrary.org.
Contact your elected officials (or just mine if you're not from Philly!).
DO SOMETHING.
Representatives say we cannot afford to keep the libraries open.
I say we can't afford to lose them.
