The two rarest editions of Dune in my collection: a “dark” Easton and a tiny book edition (complete with minuscule print!) What rarities do you have in your collections? #booksky #Dune #FrankHerbert #scifi #DuneDay

Last day of regular submissions for @sidewalkfilm.bsky.social. I’m really looking for some more amazing short #animation to expand our program this year. #filmsky #moviesky #animatedfilm #shortfilm

Winter is here, so enjoy these #Dune editions from the colder regions of the world. 🇩🇰 Danish 🇳🇴 Norwegian 🇮🇸 Icelandic 🇵🇱 Polish 🇸🇪 Swedish 🇳🇱 Dutch #booksky #scifi #FrankHerbert #arrakis #DuneDayTuesday #DuneDay

Submit to @sidewalkfilm.bsky.social today via FilmFreeway! (I would love to see an influx of #animation because I don’t think I will ever have enough animation.) #filmfest #deadlines

Childhood fantasy series. The Exitorn Adventures by Peggy Downing was some of the first fantasy I ever read. These books have survived dozens of moves over decades of years. Sometimes we need to bring our childhood with us. #booksky #fantasy #childrensbooks #shelfie

Happy Penguin Awareness Day!

It has been decades since I first read this series, & I don’t think I appreciated it the way I should have, so I’m excited to get the full series from @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social & try reading it again. Their Hyperion is lovely; the rest of the series looks to be just as beautiful.

the dérive is a small collection of short stories from @aanpress.bsky.social. Each of the 4 stories in the anthology uses the geography of a city as a key element & is accompanied by a map of the imagined city. I thoroughly enjoyed this & wish there had been more to explore. #booksky #shortstory

It seems like a good time to give US citizens a refresher reading of the Declaration of Independence and the reasons contained therein as to why it was necessary.

Musical theater reminding us of moral lessons.

Just finished a binge watch of Bookish. What isn’t there to like about bookshops and murder mysteries?

I know I tell filmmakers that they should make their short films whatever length their film needs to be, but I surely would like more of these “short” films not to need to be 28+ minutes.

Two by two! There’s so much to Dune that sometimes it needs 2 volumes for 1 book. Here are some of the 2-book sets in my collection. #booksky #frankherbert #scifi

Are you an animator with a new project? We’re still looking for more #animation to expand the 2026 @sidewalkfilm.bsky.social offerings. Submit today on FilmFreeway! #filmfest #animation #indiefilm #sidewalk2026

Could we all agree that our technology acumen should be put towards (1) making motion sensor sinks not require frantic hand waving to activate and (2) a way of opening pre-made biscuits that doesn’t require the jump-scare of a roll popping? #RealQuestions

Books I wish had small press treatments. Do they exist and I am unaware? Also, not pictured here: Rainer Maria Rilke’s Duino Elegies and Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations. #booksky #shelfie #BooksIWant

Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. #secondcoming #poetry #yeats

Some Irish American writing for your Wedneday from Fitz-James O’Brien compliments of @swanriverpress.bsky.social #booksky #shortstory #poetry #irishwriters

For my first #Dune post of 2026, some significant firsts in my collection - Chilton 1st/1st - Analog 1st printing of Dune material - Gollancz 1st UK printing - US Ace 1st PB edition - German Heyne 1st translated edition - 1984 movie edition. The first edition of Dune I ever owned #booksky #scifi

Jack Whyte’s The Camulod Chronicles is one of the most underrated Arthurian retellings. Its rich historical detail & discussions of political and religious changes makes it a favorite series of mine. #booksky #ArthurianLegend

All Seated in a Barn is trying to save 40 horses from shipping to slaughter. Every dollar matters. #HorseRescue #NotOneMore #SaveThemAll

Start the new year by saving a life. @gentlegiantsrescue.bsky.social is actively trying to rescue horses today from slaughter. #DonateNow #SaveALife #HorseRescue

Books entering public domain in 2026.

My 2025 in books. 108 books. Over 41k pages. 1 5 star rating. #booksky #2025wrapup

My year in Dune—some of my 2025 acquisitions. I’m happiest with the first Georgian edition and the Chilton signed 1st edition/9th printing. #booksky #FrankHerbert #scifi #BookCollecting

End the year with a limited time discount as we farewell 2025! Send those animated films, documentaries, and narratives today! #filmsky #movies #filmfestival #indiefilm

There are just a couple days left to grab discounted VIP and Spotlight Week passes for @sidewalkfilm.bsky.social 2026! Spotlight week passes are a great way to try the fest with less stress & free up time in the weekend to see even more films! #filmsky #filmfest #discounts

John Carter of Mars in MMPB. This set is one of the few things I have from my dad and was some of the first #scifi I read as a child. #booksky #shelfie

Malazan books from @thebrokenbinding.bsky.social! I’m waiting for set 3 before I begin my binge of the series, but these look nice on a shelf already. #booksky #fantasy #stevenerikson

All the book orders that arrived in the last week. Merry Christmas to me! Did you receive or give any books this holiday season? #booksky #MerryChristmas

Red and green books for Christmas time! #booksky #bookstack

2026 is shaping up to be another “no new books” year so I can whittle down my TBR stack. Of course, this ban excludes limited edition books, so I’m sure I’ll still be adding to my library.

My last book delivery of 2025 arrived. A signed and numbered copy of Brandon Sanderson’s Tailored Realities along with a book stamp (that I’ll never use). #booksky #shortstories #dragonsteel

Have I mentioned how excited I am that #Otherland by @tadwilliams.bsky.social is finally getting a collectible edition? I’ve waited decades for special editions of this series. Thank you, #Grimoak, for finally making it happen!

H.R.845 can so quickly undo decades of work. I’m disappointed in the House & have little hope the Senate will be any better. Fewer than 3000 doesn’t seem recovered. Passing a bill that prevents future review screams you know it can’t hold up to scrutiny. #SaveThemAll #AnimalRights

Babylon 5 is a series that I didn’t fully appreciate until it was over. Is there a distinct level of cheesiness? Absolutely, but the story arc made up for the effects and acting. I’m very curious to see what the reboot might look like. #scifi #tv #b5 #babylon5

3 @sidewalkfilm.bsky.social 2025 #shortfilms have been shortlisted for the Oscars this year! Congrats to Evergreen, The Pearl Comb, and Two People Exchanging Saliva! #filmsky #moviesky #indiefilm #sidewalkfilm

RIP Gil Gerard

Finished my 100th book for the year. And yet my TBR stack is still taller than when I began 2025.

Thirteen years ago, a tiny puppy entered my life as a temporary rescue foster. She hasn’t left yet. There really is no love like a dog’s love. #puppylove #dogs #loyalty #adoptdontshop #SaveThemAll

RIP Rob Reiner

What have been some of your favorite reads of 2025? Should I add them to my 2026 reading stack? Here are 5 of my most surprisingly enjoyed books of 2025.

I have new bookcases coming in January, and I’m spending far too much time thinking about how to reorganize my library. Really…like every day I just stand in the room and stare at my existing layout and rearrange it mentally. I don’t have a problem. This is totally normal behavior, right?

Happy 100th birthday to Dick Van Dyke!

Fourth Wing by @rebeccayarros.bsky.social from #Fablelistik Editions has arrived! Solid quality with some nice interior perks (like decorated drop caps) makes this a nice sub-$200 edition. Here’s hoping they complete the series with matching covers! #booksky #bookcollecting #empyrean

The best Christmas Carol movie adaptation is The Muppet Christmas Carol. This is fact. #filmsky #movies #MerryChristmas

Venetia by Georgette Heyer. Star Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My first Heyer book, and I was not disappointed! Thank you @foliosociety.bsky.social for this beautiful edition! #booksky #bookreview #regencyromance
