Desdemona

HI! I am a 37 year old frustrated writer and poet working undercover as a high school english teacher. I divert the pangs of frustration with voracious and eclectic reading habits that range from the highly literary to the downright pornographic.

    Hey! It looks like you love books as much as we do! We'd love to be your friend! Come check us out! I notice you've got "Good in Bed" on your shelf. LOVED that book, and love Jennifer Weiner. I recently posted a review of "Goodnight Nobody" on our site bookreviewbabes.com. We have a similar taste in books girlfriend!

    Wanted to stop by, say hello and thank you for accepting my friendship request. :-)
    I am also a frustrated writer and poet (well, even I have to admit my poetry is REALLY bad...haha), I mainly write short stories. As I often say, I can't swear I have any talent, but its what I love to do. Never been published though.

    Anyway, hope you are having a great day! :-)

    Thank you so much for writing me back. It's nice to find another writer. So far, I don't have anything published but I am working on a book at the moment called "Silent Memory." Also, I want to thank you for becoming my friend.

    Did you like the book Son of a Witch? I haven't read it yet. Is it as good a Wicked?

    I never thought I would find someone on Shelfari that had so many of the same books I do! I wish you a ton of luck with your writing because I am also trying to become a writer. What kind of books do you write?

    All is well. Due to a horrible storm yesterday morning, the stop lights were knocked out. I was almost completely across the street when I was hit in the rear of my car and spun into another car. We were all O.K. but not a great way to start the day. Luckily I'm not sore today. It's still raining though. Just finished 'All the Pretty Girls' hard to believe it was her first book. Really enjoyed it. Have a great weekend.
