About meI'm a grandmother to three kids who love to be read to. When I was little, I wanted to either be a nun, a librarian or an attorney. Law and books are still in the running...I volunteer with the Indiana Reading and Information Service (IRIS), which reads newspapers, periodicals and books over the radio for vision impaired listeners. I don't remember a time when I didn't love books. I dream of owning a small cluttered bookstore near my home that carries everything from Austen to Zane so I can introduce inner city youths to the world beyond their neighborhood.

A belated thank you for your note about my library! I dream of spending more time here, getting organized, making connections. I also have grandchildren to read to and patronize the Glendale library. And I'm also looking for a book club of real folks meeting in person to chat in addition to all the online opportunities. Bless you for your love of books and readers. Sylvia

Congratulations on winning the Member's Giveaway. I will be mailing your book "Dissonance The Turbulent Days Between Fort Sumter and Bull Run" on Monday the 18th of May. Depending on the USPS it should take 7 to 10 days to reach you. I hope you enjoy the book, and if you have any questions please contact me at jarhead109@hotmail.com or at this site. By the way I grew up in Indianapolis, and used to go to the Marion County Library when I was a child in the 60's. KeithFowler

I am inspired by your collection, and your words. This summer I just might read for the blind and dyslexic of my city, Miami. Keep reading! I love the books we share!

Hi, I just joined this site. Are you a writer too?

I'm writing because I noticed you have a book by Andrew Dornenburg in your library. I wanted to let you know that he'll be on LibraryThing for a few weeks (until December 5th), participating in an Author Chat. So stop on by and ask Andrew a question:

Thought I would drop you a note to see if you had read, Going Down South by Bonnie J. Glover yet? Or any of her other books. I just finished an ARC and really enjoyed it. Reminded me of J. California Cooper's strong women. I posted my review.

I am trying desperately to find a good book club in the Indianapolis area. I live on the near northside of downtown and would love to connect with other readers. Any suggestions?
