Spreading the Word on Wild West Monday

There's a movement brewing among Western fans, and it's called Wild West Monday. It is the brainchild of Gary Dobbs of The Tainted Archive, and he has made a video to explain the concept:



In case you can't watch the video (because you're at work, for example), here's the gist.

This Monday, March 2, 2009:
  1. Call or visit your local bookstore or library.
  2. Ask if they have a Westerns section.
  3. If they don't, ask why not?
It's that simple!

Check The Tainted Archive regularly for more updates and other great information focused on "spearheading the Western revival." Together we can spread the word that the Western is a vital genre that is important to us now, and not just something that used to be popular. Get involved!

I love WWM! I'm lucky enough to live in an area that is well-stocked for Westerns, except the local Borders. I'll be visiting them soon...

Thank you so much for taking part and pushing the day on your excellent blog.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad to help out the genre in any little way I can.
