Five Star Friday's Edition #61
Next to doing things that deserve to be written, nothing gets a man more credit, or gives him more pleasure than to write things that deserve to be read.
— Lord Chesterfield
In case you are new to Five Star Friday, this is a reader-guided weekly roundup of some of the weblog world's best writing. The list below contains submissions sent in by readers who had the the wherewithall to try to spread a little more attention toward their favourite writers, and by some accounts, it works. Also, I get to have some pretty kick ass writing served to me every week. It's win-win, no matter how you look at it.
So, I now hand over the task of dropping your work, because it's Friday, dammit, sitting back, and reading away a couple of hours. It's a task you can all handle, I assure you.
