About meI worked at a bookstore for a little over three years, which is when I collected the first thousand or so books in my collection. Since then I have been, while not idle in my collecting, definitely too broke to buy as much as I would like. That has not prevented me furthering my collection, as can be attested by its current number compared to when I worked at the bookstore, but one day I hope I can expand it faster.

About my libraryI mainly collect science fiction and fantasy, although I am slowly expanding my non-fiction as well. I recently took the time to rearrange my non-fiction books in Library of Congress classification order, which, while not necessary (I only two bookcases worth of non-fiction), was fun.
