About meI am a(n):

Italo-Brit, of Polish descent, student of Shakespeare
Professional nitpicker
Hater of huge hardbacks... pretty ones excepted
Soppy old soul, really
Accident-prone and shrimp

I enjoy:

Reading books, awesome ones
Writing books, awesomer ones
Drawing, though I'm no good really
Gigs, though not been to one in far too long
Food, everything except my greens

Favouritest things, ever:

Coffee
Sushi
Cats
Motorbikes
Art

About my libraryI am fairly old-fashioned re: the way I like my literature. I'm rather fond of beginnings, middles and endings (not necessarily in that order), strong characterisation, imaginific descriptions, learned language, powerful rhetoric. Other than that I pick'n'mix through the centuries, bookjumping from Shakespeare to Jasper Fforde (I've got a penchant for books about books, or metabooks).
