One of you is gonna fall and die, and I'm not cleaning it up!

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
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."

Mr. Pratchett is going to be doing a reading in Seattle on the last Tuesday of this month, and you better believe I'm attending.
