About meI'm a self-deprecating, over-educated grammar nerd. I'm a singer/songwriter/pianist/aspiring bagpiper (ok, that last one's a lie). I participate in full-contact knitting, Mythbusters Marathons and Icelandic Spelling Bees (ok, that last one is a lie too. Wouldn't that be cool, though?).

I also love pie. Hell, who doesn't love pie.

About my libraryMy true babies are my signed first editions which, since I do not carry the title of Baroness or Duchess, are quite limited in scope. I'm working on it.

I majored in poetry in college, hence the obscene amounts. I minored in Russian Literature, also hence.

I can't really explain the Neil Gaiman. Something tells me he wouldn't want me to.

And could someone please explain why I have four copies of Anna Karenina?

Hi,

Saw you liked Bastard Out of Carolina, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reading my new novel and posting your opinions here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). Thought you might like it since it's also southern and a bit dark. I'd be glad to e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Sobin/s work was & is really important to me. The Earth as Air was the first book I came across maybe twelve years ago, not sure. I have the Montemora books as well, old issues of Moving Letters, apex of the M, Sulfur, some letterpress stuff... novels (which I don/t care for). It/s been years since I read Towards, but I remember it/s music.

Starting on a small road trip tomorrow & I think I/ll take it along... it would be good to read it again.

He was someone I really wanted to meet or correspond with but unfortunately it never happened.

Thank you for contacting me...

yrs, Drew

PS: Have you ever read anything from Karin Lessing?

Hey! I'm back in Librarything again for the first time in ages and read your comment. Hope you'll be at Arcadia for the shoot - I'll look forward to meeting you.

And btw, one of the things I realized when I first started this was that I had three copies of Anna Karenina. You would think a book that size would not hide from you.
