Believe it or not, I have over 5000 fictional paperbacks and 1500 reference books in my personal 'library'. I do a lot of reading, and when I like a book, I keep it. I really do worry that 3500 isn't going to be enough. lol

What happens when fill your current Kindle? Do you get another one, or how does that work?

Read to them and read yourself while they're around. Take them to the local library or the book store and let them pick something that interests them. Never under-estimate the power of a bowl of popcorn and story hour before bed.

Depends on what I'm reading. Amanda Quick and Judith McNaught are my favorite romance authors because of their quick wit and funny but realistic styles of writing (if there has to be a 200 page misunderstanding, at least it's a believable one). Barbara Hambly in fantasy because I like how she...

Hi, Steve! Welcome aboard. Kindles seem to be where literature is going these days. I'll admit, I've been waffling on whether or not to get one. I really like the feel of a paperback in my hands, but there are a lot of good (it seems) indie books out there that just aren't available in other...

From one newbie to another, welcome aboard! Woo hoo, Scotland! I can read your accent from here. ;)

Hi Pawnman! Welcome aboard.

The moment you drive your brand-new car off the lot, it's out-of-date and depreciates in value. It's the same with encyclopedias from the moment they're printed. Information is constantly changing, being corrected and expanded upon. I do not keep encyclopedias in my arsenal of reference...

I have been, quite literally and along with about forty other people, blown out of my boots and into a nearby lake. The still smoldering ship that crash-landed us here only yesterday has just gone up in a fiery explosion.

I didn't realize these were books. I've been looking forward to the movie, so maybe I'd best hit my local Hastings first!

Currently, I'm working on my sister's and my father's manuscripts. I have two of my own in the slush pile. However, I came here to find good books to read and share. It's not my intent to use the site for free publicity, so I really don't want to say any more than that. Thank you for the...

Tolkien all the way For me, it's JRR Tolkien all the way. My father had the books and would read them to us, every Saturday over a big bowl of popcorn, and woe be to she who stole the book from his nightstand and pilfered herself off to sit in a quiet closet and try to skip ahead of the rest...

I have not read this book in years. I'm off to dig it out of the bookshelves, dust it of and have a go. I remember thinking it quite funny when I first read it, so it'll be interesting to see if my tastes remain the same. :)

Hello, from the Middle of Nowhere, located in Kansas (you knew it would be). Looking forward to BOTM and reading something--anything--that I didn't have to first write and then edit half unto death.
