Every Friday, the PQ Weekly Roundup collects the most shared links in our social media network—bookish articles, reviews, quizzes, recommendations and more—in convenient digest form.

Have you had a chance to check out the interactive small press map showcasing Canadian presses over at the Toronto International Festival of Authors site? (Note: Some people have commented that not all presses are represented. This is true, but not necessarily malicious. There was a general call-out for materials, so if you don’t see your favourite indie publisher, they might not have gotten around to sending in their info.)
-
If you like a good bookish documentary, you might be interested in Writing the Land, which celebrates Canadian literature, over at CBC Gem.
-
There’s a virtual event on the way about Elizabeth Brewster, featuring Quill friend Ingrid Ruthig. You, too, can tune in on November 3, if you so wish!

I was quite taken aback by this longish article about ghostwriting. It goes beyond the conception of the a writer being quietly paid to write a book for someone else and talks about different forms of “invisible” writing, from preparing social media copy for big newspapers to writing podcast scripts. Well worth the read.
-
And finally, by far our most popular post of the week was our post about Mark Frutkin’s excellent book, The Artist and the Assassin. Don’t miss this thrilling read!

There’s a nip in the air, Quill fans, which means yours truly will be hoping for a weekend that features a little cozy couch reading with a hot beverage and a warm blanket. Hope you find time to do the same.
Happy Friday,
