Legends of Western Cinema Week 2021!

 

Howdy y'all, I have returned! ;)

I'm so excited to announce this year's annual Legends of Western Cinema Week, which I'm honored to once again be hosting with Hamlette (of Hamlette's Soliloquy) and Olivia (of Meanwhile in Rivendell).

It'll run from July 19th-24th and there'll be a tag and hopefully some games and giveaways and all sorts of general western-y goodness. You'll be able to contribute whatever you like of a western loving nature: movie reviews, character and theme studies, general enthusiasm... whatever you'd like to share. And of course, even if you just want to learn a bit more about westerns and/or read everyone else's contributions, it'll be a great occasion for that too.

You don't have to sign up for anything in advance/tell us what you're planning, but feel free to start brainstorming. And of course grab one of our lovely buttons here (courtesy of Olivia) and spread the word near and far so plenty of other folks can join in the fun.

Yippee, can't wait!!

    Hi there, now on the hunt for a good ol' Western (with no sci-fi)!

    So glad to see you're bringing this event back! I was thinking about reviewing the 1999 Hallmark Hall of Fame movie called 'Durango'. Would this title be eligible for the blogathon?

      Sally Silverscreen,
      I have consulted with the other powers that be and the general agreement is that that would be just fine. ;) Looking forward to your review!

      Realweegiemidget Reviews,
      Hi there! I just recently found two of your comments and so sorry for the delay(!) :/ Did you find a good western for this week?
      Also, I've always been very fond of Scottish history, culture, etc. so your No True Scotsman blogathon sounds like great fun. Hopefully I can come up with something suitable to contribute. Thanks for the invite! :)

I'd love to hear your thoughts and look forward to further confabulation. Please just be courteous to one and all. Oh, and I love thoughts on old posts, so comment away!

(Also of late -- what with time being finite, and Life Happening + managing multiple blogs and computer issues and all that -- I sometimes have to alternate between creating new content and replying to comments, but rest assured I'm thrilled to hear from each and every one of you and always hope to reply thoughtfully in full ASAP. <3)
