• my favorite author of all time

     it is easy to dismiss terry pratchett as just another fantasy author.  (after all, what else can he be if he writes about a world that travels through space on the backs of four elephants that stand on the back of a giant turtle?)  this guy...

  • if i had a baby girl....

    i would have gone wild setting up a nursery room!  i know, i know, it's pointless to even talk about it as i have two boys instead.  and i'm not saying i want to exchange them for girls. no, no, no!  but it would be nice to have a daughter, if only for the decorating possibilities!...

  • on books, pathos, and insanity (or why i changed my site title)

it all started with a conversation i had with my sister maia several days ago.  we were talking about terry pratchett and how reading his books always makes us happy.  but maia went on to defend pathos in books and said that a good cry is always therapeutic, so she likes to read them once in a while.  i disagreed, but for very personal reasons.  growing up, i was such a drama...
