Member beowulf

This library was started in 1993 when I was in high school. Whenever I think about my most important possessions I turn and look at my books. I am constanly rearranging and reorganizing. But most importantly, I am constantly reading. I have books everwhere, some that don't even have a permanent home on a shelf but live on my dresser or in the nook above our bed. Books are a beautiful thing and can substitute for television any day.

I am a writer and a teacher of English: literature and writing. I just received my master's degree in English and teaching. I hated Beowulf in high school but when I started the master's program I read the Seamus Heaney version of Beowulf and fell in love. What an amazing story and what a beautiful poem.
