    The Purple Worm

    Welcome! Wuthering Heights is one of my most favorite books, as well. I loved it....definitely one I need to re-read soon. Perhaps you'll find your inspiration for writing around here, no matter what, I hope you have lots of fun! :)

    Question: upon returning to a book...

    Depends on how long its been. If I've only left off for a week or two, I usually pick back up where I left off. If its been longer, I typically reread from the start.

    October Sky (A Photo, not the movie)

    Silly Wabbit - I so agree. The sky is so beautiful and majestic, its impossible not to marvel at the beauty of the world when looking at the infinity of the sky. I definitely think its at its best in the morning hours. Its worth getting up a bit early to see such beauty before the day starts...

    October Sky (A Photo, not the movie)

    This is a picture of our sky this morning...probably a bad sign to be so red, but it sure is pretty.

    Halloween joke

    That was always a favorite of mine. I used to have a book of halloween jokes (when I was in 2nd grade or so), and it was full of bad jokes like these.

    Advice on Children's Books

    I'm currently tutoring a struggling 7th grade reader. She reads independently on a 3rd-4th grade level, and reads instructionally on a 4th-5th grade level. She enjoys non-fiction nature books, as well as the Mary Kate & Ashley Olson books (yeck). Do you know of any books on that level that...

    Halloween joke

    I may have to sue for emotional disturbance...I don't need to be seeing bad jokes at 6:00am in the morning :eek:

    What do you do with a book you've read?

    I also want a library in my future house! Definitely a prereq, with lots of shelves and comfy furniture....aaahhh, Heaven. :)

    Gone away!

    I'm guilty of the not emailing thing. Its just not my thing...there is no reason besides the fact that I'm terrible at keeping in touch with people. And a month isn't all that long of a time, but if its the first one, I can understand the loneliness. It will pass much faster than you...

    Hamsters in hats

    I think they're amusing...for the most part. I would have to say, if I had a short-haired dog, I would get it sweaters for the winter when it had to go outside. I can't knit! :) For some reason the hats on the hamsters is extra amusing...maybe because no one ever thinks of dressing up hamsters.

    Why..

    Eh, I had to get up "early," as well...my cats didn't realize the clocks were set back. So much for my extra hour... :(

    Hamsters in hats

    They were cute...my husband would kill me if I did that...he thinks clothes on animals are dumb. I think they're fun.

    Gone away!

    Definitely spend lots of free time with your friends & read a lot. I've had to spend time away from my husband, and books & friends are what kept me sane (it was about a month).

    Where do you go for "new authors"?

    My problem is that I am also well-supplied! And I'm always finding new genres & new authors. I do like to try something new every once in a while, which is when I go use the above methods of finding new authors/books.

    where your books go?

    I've already planned to leave them to my dad. Though there are many of which he has duplicates, in which case, they are to be divided among interested friends and family members. A few of my favorites I'm leaving to my husband, just for the memory of me reading by his side as we hung out...

    Where do you go for "new authors"?

    I also frequently use Amazon's Listmania feature, as well as "Customers who bought this also bought...". In addition, I use several book websites to find similar authors to those whom I enjoy, as well as information about random authors. Some good websites, at least for me: Gnooks World...
