About My Library

divided between fiction, non-fiction with a growing number of e-books, mostly fiction. I am still in the process of entering into LT's database

About Me

When people ask me where I’m from, I answer that I was born and raised in the North (Portland, Maine - that’s why I talk funny) then refined in the South. A former human resource specialist with additional background in process refinement and quality control, I’m now retired and have plenty of time to read. I have lived in several Maine towns, North Carolina, Michigan, and now call Florida home.

Even though I am a fan of romance and historical novels, my library includes a broad range of fiction and non-fiction materials. A love of children’s literature cultivated as a child, parent, grandparent, and 4-H leader continues to this day. I dream about writing the great American novel, but never seem to get beyond the dreaming stage. So far my writing has been limited to essays, newsletters, workplace manuals and training materials, blogging, and of course book reviews.

A youthful longing to have a personal library has materialized into a houseful of books that includes a library/media center. My e-book library has reached over 1000 books and is still growing. E-books are portable and a wonderful addition to a paper library. In addition to LibraryThing, my reviews may be read on my blog, Reading with Muzzie and on Fictionwise.
