Three things - to interest or amuse

1. A bookish Christmas tree!

2. A 3-day writing workshop in February in a lovely-looking location, designed to let you 'explore your life on the page', led by my friend the novelist, poet, short story writer and creative writing tutor Sarah Salway.

3. Books - The Last Chapter? - a BBC programme with Alan Yentob and various literary luminaries discussing the impact of electronic publishing on the traditional book, to be broadcast tonight (Tues.) at 10.35 and viewable on iPlayer.

On your friend's page that you link to it says

Do you want to rediscover that creative spark you thought you’d lost and have fun ...

Yes I do! Might it work for me?

A bookish Christmas tree!: Reference books - great!

The Facebook Page "I have more books than friends" posted a great bookish tree too - personal books in someone's home - very colorful! I have the books - just don't have the space or energy to carry it out. :-)

Also on Facebook, Random House shared a photo of a bookish tree constructed by the folks at Fodors:
