About meI live in Westbrook, Maine and crunch numbers. I'm married to the fabulous Woctune (also a Librarything member).

About my libraryI have a tendancy to be pretty selective about my library, and I also don't have a ton of space. So it's going to stay small, probably forever.

I've been reading more books from the library lately, so I'll add those to "read but unowned."

Noticed you liked The Sound and the Fury, 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 southern, a bit violent, and 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). Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter)in case you'd like to read more about the novel before you commit:

Thanks for your brief review for "The Best From Galaxy vol IV"!

I was adding a couple of stacks of anthologies I haven't read yet, and after reading your review, this book is now in my short tbr pile. Asteroids and their possibilities are a particular interest of mine.

Hi, again.

As we were discussing a few months ago:
the reprint of Avram Davidson's Adventures in Unhistory is in the stores. (I've got mine....)

I appreciated your Tao Te Ching review-- I'd just been wondering what translation(s) were preferable.

Hear, Hear! for Jack Vance. I have always enjoyed his style and the sense of place for the worlds he creates.
