Mmm, books.












This guy likes him some books. I'm not as compulsive as he is (I don't have 5 copies of anything, for instance), but I can't help but admire his collection, as pictured here. I like how unfussy it is. No clear, library-style book covers on anything. Just books. But a lot to read. That's actually one of the least cool things about working again: my reading time has been mercilessly reduced. Now that "Lost" is over, maybe I can catch up a little. (BTW, wasn't that an excellent season finale?) Well, I've got to get some reading in before I hit the hay. I'm into a new thriller called "Child 44." So far, very good, and one of the most frightening books set in an oppressive, totalitarian-governed country since "1984." If you've got some extra bucks and some time, pick it up, check it out.

    I can see spine damage on those books from the photo.

    I sure wish someone would submit their book to some publishing houses. Sigh. Sure is a bummer when a certain talented someone refuses to submit a certain great novel he wrote.

    ^It sure is, anon! I bet that certain talented someone might know another untalented someone that has a connection to a certain someone who used to work at a publishing house in NY. If only he'd allow that other certain untalented someone to contact her on his behalf and send that gem along.

  5. As exciting as books may appear to be, I'm not sure they can carry a blog for more than two weeks. Write something!
