About meWhen not trying to understand the complexities of natural (or formal) language(s) -- or living a life of impurity -- I read fiction. Sometimes other things, but usually fiction.

About my libraryMy books are some of the only things I will not sell. I love them.

Noticed you liked Clockwork Orange, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a group of violent kids (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

MLIS world is good, although still replete with all the problems typically associated with McG (what a surprise). As usual, I'm glad to be going home for the summer, just as a break from this crazy place -- I've always liked Montreal, but it's always seemed sort of like the bizarro world at the same time.

OMG. I was just on the Michel Tremblay author page, and saw that someone called "linguist" had three of his books, and I was all, "Linguist, what a matter-of-fact name, let's check out the real linguist-credentials behind the scenes," and it's YOU! You're totally going on my watchlist.
