About meJust graduated from law school. Also graduated with an undergraduate degree in Journalism and English (specific focus on British literature from Shakespeare to Johnson). My interests have shifted more toward contemporary fiction, mostly American (that is, North and South American), though I always concurrently read nonfiction on current affairs.

About my libraryLike paperbacks, and don't have much signed or first editions. Slowly putting all the books up on LT. Admittedly have missed many volumes and neglected to put a lot of school books up.

Noticed that you liked The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). I thought you might like my novel since it's been compared to that novel by a number of reviewers. I could 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:

Thanks,

Just saying hello to another Nebraskan. Apparently we've both met Kooser, Dan Chaon, and Susan Jackson Rodgers. :)
