About meI'm a professional musician; a guitarist, alas. I'm middle aged (50), and have been building my library since I was eleven. My reading has slowed these past two years or so: I'm no longer a minimum of a book a day....in fact, some weeks I read nothing other than my newspapers and RSS feeds. The cataloging I'm at present enjoying may well be some kind of displacement activity: instead of, rather than as well as.
I'm trying to write a novel (but who isn't?) and I hope that I manage to write something more commercial than my last attempt.

About my librarySomewhat Catholic in tastes. I collect Christopher Logue Firsts. (Well a chap has to have a hobby, after all.) There's a lot of Sci-Fi and Fantasy rubbish from my schooldays, but then again, let those without sin cast the first stone.
