About meI've been an insatiable (obsessed) reader since I was six. That is a very long time ago...4 decades or so. "Get your nose outa that book..." was my Mum's most frequently uttered statement. In her defense, I might have gone without eating (certainly without doing any chores or even sleeping) if allowed to. I confess, books are my first love and a persistent one (sorry to my husband of 24 years who has often been ignored for long periods of time while I make my way through a 7 book series!). It was Tolkien that hooked me on fantasy since first reading his epic in the early 70's. Loved it then, love it now. Over the years I've been awed and amazed to tears by the talent, creativity and incredible imagination of many other fantasy writers (and SF)(and poetry)(and photography) (and quantum physics)(and...etc.)
About my libraryToo many books - ah! There are only a fraction of them listed here now. It is interesting to see how many we all have in common, and which ones NOBODY has! It's bazzar to think that there may be someone out there who has a shockingly similar collection...its a big world, surely there must be someone, somewhere who has tastes as crazy as mine.

So good to hear that your writing is going well! And that you are happy! I was hoping as much! I also hope I get the chance to add one of your books (at least) to my catalogue one day! That would be so good!
This is just a quick reply to let you know I think of you often, and to send lots of happy writing thoughts your way. I'm glad you are taking a small break to read a little - I will look to see what you read next with interest. :)
Take care, stay well,
~Lyn
