If you’re a writer, odds are your bookmarks and search history (or portions of your bookshelf, like mine over there) are fairly entertaining/educational/horrifying. I spent a year doing freelance work for an educational publisher and ended up with all these bookmarks about national parks, bees, sneakerheads, beaver dams, certain holidays, ranches, service vacations, pollution, specific athletes, and more. It made me look like I was deeply curious about an awful lot of things–and I am.

Here, for your enjoyment, are two screenshots of the bookmarked sites that I used while researching the novel I recently completed. Not concerning at all, right? Oh, the joy of research!
