Story! Shtetl Days

Shtetl Days by Harry Turtledove

This is not a comfortable story to read. It includes anti-semitic violence and harm to characters. I'm recommending it because it talks about long-term hope, and about some fundamental positives about Judaism. Also it is wonderfully well-crafted.

As a holiday gift for all you lovely dreamwidth folks, I added a story! tag for your reading pleasure. I've gone back and tagged 2018 posts, and will get to the rest over time.

And a links tag too, while I was at it.

One thing that could make dreamwidth immensely better is a proper search function. Having to add tags by hand to be able to find things later is just silly.

What sort of search function do you want? DW has a full-text site search; it's under explore-site and journal search in the main header. Free accounts can search all public posts on the site (ignore the message that says you can't); paid accounts can also search a specific journal or all public comments on the site.

If you don't have a paid account, you can still pretty much search your journal by adding your username to the search terms.

It's not as full-featured as AO3's search or anything, but it's usually enough that I can find an old post I'm looking for pretty quickly.

I agree that it would be great to have a search feature...

Thank you, I've much appreciated your gifts of online reading stories over the past few years.
