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.

• We love stories that intersect with other art forms, so this piece about the challenges of referencing real pieces of art in fictional stories is fascinating to me.

• It’s rarely a good idea for authors to respond to book reviewers on Amazon, Goodreads, Twitter or what have you. This article is a reminder as to why.

• We don’t talk about the dangers librarians face daily, but we need to. (This post is based on an American experience, but librarian friends here in Ontario have shared some shocking statistics about this kind of thing closer to home, as well.)

• “Maybe that’s what concerns me: that by conflating me with my protagonists, the critiques will be of me and not of my work.” On the struggle of writers, particularly marginalized ones, to explain that they are not their characters.

• And finally, did you know that there is an upcoming documentary about wood engraver, PQL friend and all-around cool guy George A. Walker? You can watch the fabulous trailer here!

Thanks for stopping by to see what we’re interested in and/or excited about this week. See you here next week for more!

Happy Friday,
