* In 1928, Bill Traylor, an illiterate former slave in his seventies, moved from the Alabama plantation where he was born to Montgomery.

* Warning: These photos of author Michael Cunningham's library may inspire bookshelf envy. (Work in Progress)
* Jack Nicholson has been sitting courtside at Lakers games for 30 years, and the L.A. Times put together the photos to prove it. (LATimes)
* "I am still very much aware of people's perceptions of me—or what I imagine their perceptions to be... And now that I am a published young adult author, in addition to my job as, essentially, a reviewer of YA fiction, some of the people in my imagination look at the direction my life has taken, furrow their brows, and mumble: 'Weird.'"—Lucas Klauss on being a grown man who loves young adult fiction.
