About meI'm 32. Two kids, a boy (5) and a girl (2). A dog (Mack aka nipples aka numbnuts aka shut the hell up). Husband. I garduated high school in '98, went to Oberlin College in Ohio for a year or and a half. I dropped out halfway through my second year and moved back to B.F.E. in southwestn VA. My hometown is about an hour north of Greensboro, N.C. I started delivering pizzas in the fall of '00. I was in and out of college until I had my son. I don't think I'll ever go back now-it's just too much money and I can't think of anything to major in that won't make me miserable once I graduate. I LIKE working in a pizza place. The thought of being stuck in an office doing the exact same boring thing everyday is my own personal hell.
My focus is on my kids anyway. As long as I can be a good mother I can't see anything as having a higher purpose than that. Maybe when they American novel or open a restaurant of my own. Or start a pit bull rescue program. Or just be old and fat and happy with tons of grandkids I can ply with cookies and pot roast.

About my libraryI've always been a sci fi/ fantasy fan and an avid reader of historical fiction. I like some non fiction too. Especially anything historic, related to biology (especially about disease, epidemics, and evolution). I like some stuff about anthropology and quantum theory (if I can understand it).
Lately I've been obsessed with anything war related. Military memoirs, military historic fiction, p.o.w. stories and watching Platoon ad nauseum.

Hey Megan,

Just wanted to let you know that I bought Kushiel's Dart on your suggestion and I'm LOVING it! All the politics and all the names have me a bit thrown, but I adore Phèdre and Delaunay. One of those books that costs you sleep :)

So thanks again for the suggestion.

Kind regards,
Yvonne (Vonini)
