The hallmark of the latter half of the Aughts seems to be the rise and prevalence of networking. We're making contacts with people like never before. If it helps to keep the book industry alive, I say more power to it! I would think it would depend on whether you’re writing a column or moderating a listserv.

Do you think I should make a group about bookish charities, mention it in the discussion, or leave these kinds of things out of the site altogether? What do you think?

I do indeed enjoy reading short fiction, though, and I own several collections of Orson Scott Card, Ursula K LeGuin, Clive Barker, T.C. Boyle short stories. It sounds to me like I need to pick up the book you mentioned...and if there were a magazine regularly putting out such short fiction, I'd very likely subscribe, and share with my children.
