About Me

I make my living by writing about the books I read. More about that at Genrefluent. I live on the edge of a canyon in a handmade sustainable house. Skateboarding is my favorite spectator sport.

*********************************************

You're Anne of Green Gables!
by L.M. Montgomery
Bright, chipper, vivid, but with the emotional fortitude of cottage cheese, you make quite an impression on everyone you meet. You're impulsive, rash, honest, and probably don't have a great relationship with your parents. People hurt your feelings constantly, but your brazen honestly doesn't exactly treat others with kid gloves. Ultimately, though, you win the hearts and minds of everyone that matters. You spell your name with an E and you want everyone to know about it.

Netflix. I do go see a movie once a year or so. We rented Miss Potter from Netflix and it was the best movie I've seen in years. It made me want to go out and reread The Cottage Tales of Beatrix Potter series by Susan Wittig Albert.

Don't watch it. We have a tv but get no reception and currently don't have a satellite. I takes too much time away from reading.

Books:

All genres about 6 a week. Favorite authors change daily but long term favorites in no particular order and off the top of my head are Lois McMaster Bujold, Carl Hiaasen, Mary Balogh, Jane Austen, Barbara Kingsolver, Nancy Werlin, Robert A. Heinlein, Scott Westerfeld, Marsha Qualey, Kenneth Oppel, Charles de Lint, James H. Schimtz, Neil Gaiman, David Lubar, Cherie Bennett, Jeff Gottesfeld, Meredith Blevins, Madeline L'Engle, Ursula K. Le Guin
