- About My Library
- Lately a lot more wishlist than anything else, as I have less and less time to spend reading. This is a mashup of personal and professional reading, so you'll find a lot of speculative fiction under various tags, feminism, vegetarianism, anthropology, comparative religion, neopaganism, digital literacy, historical fiction, higher education, media studies, gaming/technology and culture....but no horror, and very few mysteries.
- About Me
I own an editorial services company, and provide editing, indexing, and coachign services to scholarly authors, as well as faculty development workshops round publishing to indivduals, departments, and associations.
