Books take up space. Viable space. Space I could be using to store my multitude of CDs because I think they're nifty. Also, books are made out of paper. You know what that means? If you're a voracious reader, you're killing a lot of trees. As an Oregonian I am programmed to tell you that you are SICK ( Read more... )

First of all, I feel that I should comment on NaNoWriMo thus far. Currently I am a couple thousand words ahead and expect to finish with some time to spare. Getting sick for a weak though put me a little behind, but don't fear, I shall prevail ( Read more... )

By some swing of the cosmos I made it to a public library today. (Okay, so I had to go get a haircut and this is where I wait for my ride to get off work.) Everytime I come to a library I feel very nostalgic, since when I was a child I practically read my life away and the library was a source of most of those books. And since then I have ( Read more... )

I've been trying to write something here for the longest time. But I have writer's block over what to write.

So here is a post on writer's block! =D
