About My Library
Sprawling but well-organized. As with my collection of vintage space-age vinyl, most of my books have been acquired on the cheap -- can't resist the thrill of the hunt! Once I get them home, however, I take my custodial duties very seriously.
About Me
I'm the happily single owner of two cats, Ray (named for Messrs. Bradbury & Harryhausen) and Lovecraft; assistant magazine editor; psychology/anthropology major; Sagittarian with the moon in Libra and Pisces rising; student of Epictetus; life-long Anglophile; fan of all things mid-century modern; vintage vinyl LP collector; enthusiastic letter writer. I love to lurk in libraries, book shops, dusty museums, second-hand record shops, thrift stores, gin joints and tiki bars.

Being an old maid is like death by drowning, a really delightful sensation after you cease to struggle ~ Edna Ferber

Once a woman is called "that crazy old maid" she can get away with anything ~ Florence King
