About meLibrarian. Television addict. Collector of TV Tie-In novels. Fan of science fiction, fantasy, mysteries and the occasional romance. I also read an eclectic selection of non-fiction. I'm also webmaster for my local science fiction club -- Star Base Andromeda, and for the Hugo-winning science fiction author Robert Reed, so you'll see a number of things associated with both of those topics on my LT bookshelf.

About my libraryI'm adding all of my books somewhat piecemeal. I've got piles of them, and boxes of them, throughout my home, many hidden behind piles and boxes of other things. I'm going to enter every last book that I've collected, although as I'm going through them I'm finding many that I no longer wish to keep. Those, I'm releasing through my BookCrossing account. So...not everything you'll see on my LT shelf is actually still owned by me! After I've entered in all the books I still own physically -- and I'm about 95% done with that -- I'm going to go back and try to enter in all the books I've ever read in the past, as far as I can recall. I'll also try to scan and add covers for any books I've got copies of that there are no covers listed -- these I'll tag with "coverscan", in case you're interested!

I'm a Nebraskan too. I actually live in Dunning (other side of Broken Bow), but I'm in Lincoln at the moment as my Mom is a patient at BryanLGH. Lots of time for cruising around LT while we sit around the hospital rooms.
I'll be sure to check out some of your links. They look really interesting.

i saw your name pop up as a member that had one of my (Sci-Fi short story)books.
did you review it? someone did. i'm new to LT, so i should stroll around a bit.
***anyway, i was going to suggest that you check out my page again...i've joined LT and i linked both of my NOVELS and all my short stories (but one, it's on an online publication that can't be posted)***
please check it out, and i have MY 3RD NOVEL COMING OUT AROUND MARCH OR APRIL. "ASTEROPIA: BOOK 2 OF THE LUNAR SERIES."
if you did review "Lunar Laws" it probably wasn't that good. but i've adapted all my Lunar shorts into one novel, "Lunar Legends" (which my new novel is a sequel to).
great to meet you! josethmoore
