Watcher’s Council nominations for September 3, 2014
One of Thursday’s great pleasures, every week, week in and week out, is reading through the nominations at the Watcher’s Council. Half of the nominations come from council members and half from writers the council members believe have written something worthy of notice for a given week. I’ll be reading and voting on the following posts today. Sadly, you can’t vote, but you can definitely join with me in ready all of this excellent material:
