Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You live in Brazil, Gris?! How did that happen?

Consider my eyebrows also raised in surprise!

Hey. New board.

My wife and I are teaching at an American school here. Calvin is 6 now, will be 7 in December. My younger two are 4 and almost 2.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh wow!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

How cool, Gris! And how nice to hear from you!

Hello, Gris!

So guys. It'll be months from now, but there's already a nice promo in Tor [link] : Angry Robot will publish Keren Landsman's Heart of the The Circle in English, which is such a wonderful book and I encourage you all to read it. Keren (who is a friend and a wonderful person) published a book before and a lot of short stories. The Heart of the Circle is probably her best fantasy writing. I can't wait for you to get the chance to read it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I'm trying to get back into reading so I check out some light fare from the library. Meg Cabot, whom I have never read, Big Boned. Which I read super fast. It was fine, predictable in many ways, but enjoyable.

Now I am reading Jenny Colgan - Sweetshop of Dreams. Not going nearly as fast as the Cabot, but I am enjoying it.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I love that video. And the Wonky Donkey reminds me of the (fancy, antsy, prancy, dancy) Nancy Ann Cianci game.

I replaced my lost copy of Zelazny's A Night in the Lonesome October with a hard cover. Given the prices I saw online, this book is getting hard to find--at least in the original cover--and it's such a glorious book.
