I'm an obsessive bibliophile who is curious about and loves to study many things. I also love animals of all kinds and currently have 3 cats and a dog. In the past I've had rats, mice, ferrets, a sugar glider, a cockatiel, various types of geckos, fish, hamsters ... you get the idea.

    Don't forget to read Never Ceese before Forever Richard. I hate that Shelfari won't allow me to put the right copy of Forever Richard up. So stupid. ARRGGHHHH! You can read Electric Angel at any time. It's more or less a stand alone . . . unless . . . LOL

    And thank you for your interest in my writing! If you'd like to learn more about my horror books, I recently appeared on the "Conversations" TV talk show shot at Mansfield University to discuss them. The YouTube link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FRwoEH9ZO4.

    Hi Katy,
    From your bookshelf I think you might enjoy my new Viking adventure novel, THIS ENCHANTED LAND: THE SAGA OF DANE WULFDIN. There's lots of action & a steamy romance between Dane and Queen Shera the Witch. For more info about the book, please visit my website at http://www.viking-sagas.com.
    Best wishes,
    William P. Robertson

    Hi Katy,

    There has been a few issues with the search over the last week, so I assume that is why it created a new contributor. You can combine the pages by using the link on the bottom of the contributor page.

    I don't think that you can combine your member profile with the contributor profile. But I will need to double check. Am only on my phone for internet til the end of the weekend, can I get back to you when I get on a real computer?

    Thanks,
    Bec

    I was told about this site on author central. So I'm not sure how it works. I'll have to put up the books I read, not the ones I write. Your reading stats are impressive Katy and I don't think I'll impress. But I'll go at it slowly. Nice to hear from you

    As an independant author I'm delighted when someone buys my book. The New York Druid was fun to write and I hope you enjoyed it

    I haven't read those yet and they'll only read books I recommend, or at least Ranger will, sometimes. Pilot generally only reads owners' manuals for vehicles we buy, plus a the few book he has read that are on Shelfari.
    I'm thinking we'd want to get a real ereader because the battery life is longer than eight hours.

    I think Mom brought one of those books home since I did read it recently. It was pretty good, though, my brothers are really hard to find books for. Ranger's easier than Pilot but both of them pretty much refuse to read anything that doesn't have lots of action and fighting in it.

    Seranfyll is interesting, so far but I've been busy so I haven't gotten to read it that much. (I try to get through library books before reading books I own.)
    Neat. My youngest brother is thinking about getting a Kindle. We're going to wait since we're hoping the prices will go down a little, and I've heard Kindle is going to have something so some books can be lent to others.

    I don't really mind the cliche, just when the same author uses it multiple times. (And I don't consider it being YA a good excuse.)

    I really don't mind the more light-handed type preachiness, it's just the heavy handed stuff. (Like I loved Dark Life even though the plot was based off the idea that Global Warming had happened.)

    The flock characters are interesting, and realistic, but Patterson does not do plots or villains very well. Most of the villains are all the same, evil rich guys, most of which are mad scientists and they're all trying to take over, or destroy, the world so the plot gets repetitive. (I also get a little tired of the environmental messages.)

    You must read really fast! More than a hundred already is very impressive...and makes me a bit jealous!

    Sorry! They make the recommendation pictures so small I think you might not be the only one I've duplicated.
    And, thank you!!!

    Holy moly! You just blew my modest 30+ TBR pile out of the water! I wish you luck with all those books! I think the most I've ever read in a year is around 70, so I wouldn't even be able to get through your promised pile in a year! You were not kidding about being an obsessive bibliophile. :)
