About meOld enough to know better, I'm still involved in a Stupid Boy Project to read all 58 original Hardy Boys stories. I've even started blogging it for some reason!
I'm also married with one kid.
And I'm a software developer but that's not half as interesting as the other stuff.

About my libraryI worked for HarperCollins Publishers in Bishopbriggs for three years straight out of uni. They had a bookshop on-site that sold returned books from bookshops for as little as 25p. Cue impending bookshelf inadequacy. In short order my bedroom was stacked high with books, some of which I planned to read during my retirement. For example: I managed to collect almost the entire works of Agatha Christie. I've read one of them.
The last year has seen a merciless cull and a sudden, unexplained influx of detective fiction and sci-fi in several local charity shops. And that was before I discovered BookMooch!
I now have a much more manageable collection but I still have doubts about whether I'll have read Asimov's Foundation Saga before I'm pensioned off.
