public libraries in the usa offering free digital library cards to people not in their areas (as of october 2023):

  • brooklyn (13-21yo us residents)
  • seattle (13-26yo us residents)
  • boston (13-26yo us residents)
  • los angeles (13-18yo california residents)
  • san diego (12-26yo us residents, not the whole collection just commonly banned books)

these cards (part of the books unbanned initiative) get you access to each library’s complete libby/overdrive collection (unless otherwise mentioned), no hoopla/kanopy/physical copies included.

ebook collections are expensive to maintain (many american libraries have annual fees for non-residents because of this) but because of an uptick in book banning (particularly brutal in mississippi last summer) larger libraries have opened their doors more, which is very kind of them!

i’ve used my seattle card for the last several months and their libby collection has about three times the books that my local library does, which is wonderful for accessing more niche titles or skipping a waiting list. would love to hear of similar ebook initiatives internationally!

i use library extension (firefox/safari/chrome compatible) to check all my collections (+ the internet archive) at once, works for several different countries highly recommend it.

spotify seems to be offering 15hrs/month of audiobook listening to premium subscribers and while that does seem useful if you’re already paying and are after a new release with a long library waitlist, libraries are better for everything else.

Hi there, I really love your horse designs! Found you on Pinterest and followed you here.

I draw horses as well but I have trouble with their anatomy. I love the sleek and simple way you draw horses and I was wondering if you had any tips for horse anatomy? Especially around their muscle structure and how to keep it simple. I find I have trouble making the neck look natural.

Thank you so much!

Hi! Thank you, and glad you made it here!

I have this overall post for horse anatomy! Just added a bit about necks to it (and attached below) :)
