I realize that I like TV programming from non-US, English-speaking countries. Oh, and I'm really digging Katherine Heigl. She's in "Grey's Anatomy", but I also liked her in "Roswell". I JUST started watching Pushing Daisies, which maybe even after a single episode I love!
Books:
Once I read ISHMAEL, which is wonderful. Also, I reread THE BOOK OF FIVE RINGS regularly. I'm spending some time writing an autobiographical work of fiction intended to capture the essence of my military career--There will be a lot of blank pages. THE POWER OF ONE by Bryce Courtenay got me through some seriously tough spots. Catherine Asaro's PRIMARY INVERSION is so much more than mazing:-D Mark Abley wrote SPOKEN HERE. That book is changing my life. In recent days I've literarily met Kage Baker and Terry Pratchett. We are in serious like with Kage Baker and Terry Pratchett. a.a.diCapa's works make me so happy! The Davidson's book GENIUS DENIED motivates me. E.L. Konigsburg is an INCREDIBLE author. Read her work.
