Sorry! I've been away for a while. I've been slammed with work and am now suffering from a major case of burnout. I'm actually trying NOT to do anything with books for a while, lest I start burning them (just kidding...)

For the first time in my life, I'm not going to do ANYTHING. I'm just trying on life for a while to see how it fits.... more »

    I just finished The Last Crossing... it was an okay piece of historical fiction. It didn't rocky my world. I started reading The Glass Castle last night for our book discussion. So far so good!

    P.S. I might be taking a road trip down to the Tennesee Tinsel Town... I'll keep you posted!

    Hello Ang: )
    How are you doing? I hope that everything is fine by you. Did you enjoy Thanksgiving? It was alright by me, just a lot of cleaning, cooking, and eating haha.

    Hi Ang
    Thanks for the comments about my photo.
    It is from a story I wrote about the new scientifically advanced play equipment which some Mums do not like.
    I tried to replace it with a pic of me and Australia's New Prime Minister Kevin Rudd but apparently I do not have as advanced a copy of Explorer as I need to do that.
    I see youare quite adept at re-inventing yourself .
    I agree with the poet about the new Ang.
    I also see you seemed to have changed your background little or is that just im reading, a bad habit of both trades, I suspect.
    Cheers
    Bernie

    I understand that you are busy these days-with work and the holidays coming up. Do you have any special plans for Thanksgiving? We are planning to eat out somewhere.The stove does not work good enough for a turkey lol.

    You know I think I will Google Shahrunsh Parsipur (the author of Touba). I am curious why she was exiled and everything. Juding from her writing it does not seem that she did anything wrong.

    Good evening Ang :)
    I hope that you are well and that your days went by smoothly. So what are you reading these days? I just got a book from the library. Touba and the Meaning of Night.
    Its about a Persian female writier who goes thru many hardships in her life becuz she writes books. The interesting thing about this book is that in Iran the books from this author are all banned. And the auther herself is living in exile in California.

    Ang DePriest,

    Thank you for taking the time to answer my question....In some respect, I think there needs to be a thread simply on that-Why there is an African American section in bookstores?

    The fact that my jaw is currently resting on my keyboard is certainly making it difficult to type. No lie, coke can man is the worst! Lord, help us all, but especially him. LOL! I do look forward to the other stories.

    Oh dear, I just read your "Bring a Hooker to Dinner Man" tale, and all I could think of was Dorothy Parker's line, "Now, look, baby, 'Union' is spelled with 5 letters. It is not a four-letter word." LOL! I can't wait to read more on your site.
    cheers,
