and we've been enjoying the [air] sequence a great deal. Bought all the individual issues as well as 2 copies of the first trade. This evening Patty said that it reminded her of "a wrinkle in time" which puzzled me at first until she explained that both have young women protagonists coming to terms w/ abilities of which they were unaware

A friend of mine picked up a copy of the trade of Air the other day and brought it into work. He left it in my office and I started flipping through it during my lunch break. I couldn't put it down! I kept sneaking a few more pages every now and then through out the day and by the time we went home I had finished the whole thing. I really loved how you introduced us to the world that Air is set in, and the last issue was so great! I had to go home and order my own copy, along with the rest of the single issues that are out. I'm definitely going to be subscribing, and I can't wait to see where the story is going! I realized that I had gotten Cairo for Christmas and hadn't had a chance to read it yet, so I pulled it from my pile of books to read and devoured that story as well. When I saw you were an author on LibraryThing, I just had to let you know how much I'm enjoying your work! You have such a unique voice and I look forward to reading whatever you come up with next :)

Just to say how much our family enjoyed "Cairo." Initially checked it out from our small town library and both Patty and I thought it among the best graphic novels we'd come across this year (and bought a copy). And then just the other evening, we v. pleased to discover that our son, to whom we gave a copy for Christmas, counted "Cairo" among his year's favorites.

Though the two stories are radically different in tone, my two favorites this year were both set in the middle east: "Cairo" and "Shooting War" by Anthony Lappe.

Thanks for writing and defn. on the lookout for future books from your hand.

Hi there! Just read "Cairo" and enjoyed it very much. What a beautiful book - Vertigo did a nice job. Was tickled to add it to Library Thing and see the author on board.

Awesome!

Take care,
Mdhershman.

Hi,

I just want to say that I'm really looking forward to "Cairo", the preview I have seen of it looks fantastic! :)

Hi there,

I’ve noticed that you’ve added a picture to your author’s page! Now that you’re part of the community, I was wondering whether you’d be interesting in becoming a Librarything Author.

Our LT Author program, in essence, connects authors with their fans. Authors join LT as regular members -- so you’ve completed the first step! -- and catalog at least 50 books. Then their member profile page is connected with their "author page" on LT (which shows how many other LT members list their books in their LT libraries), and are added to the master list of LT Authors. It's a fun way for readers to browse in their favorite author's personal library, and for authors to connect with their fans on a personal level.

More here.

You can also upload a photo, and post links to your homepage, blog, interviews and articles. Once you feel you meet the requirements, email Abby (abby@librarything.com) and she’ll authorize it as an LT Author account -- it's free. We’d love to have you!

Let me know if you have any questions.
