Live in the West of Scotland. I'm married with two daughters and work as a bookseller for the UK's only remaining book retail chain. Love my job, but do pour a significant percentage of my earnings back into the company!
Will read just about anything, don't really do fantasy fiction and definitely haven't jumped on the teen vampire... more »

    A fellow Brit! Just a quick note to introduce myself as the author of Kyle vs Leila - Battle for the Cyberdomes. Hopefully my YouTube reading will convince you it's worth a look :-)

    Book "Child 44" dose sound interesting. If I like it I might follow through with getting the other two books in the series.

    I found it a tad over my head in high school. I took German in college in part to read Grasse in the original. I never got good enough for his subtlety, but was able to understand the translation better. When I read it in college the travesty of neglect and despondency as well as dysfunctional personalities was more easily separated from the overall WWII tragedy going on.

    Did you notice I changed my picture to the painting that was the inspiration for Clem. I don't know what it was the inspiration for, I haven't got that far yet.

    Oh let me know what you think of The Road and The Historian. Both of them are really great reads!

    Weird! I added "The Other Hand" and Shelfari converted it. I did think of you during the "what's going on in Tayubi's head" debate. You thought English may have been her second language. I had a Glaswegian "friend" many years ago and had to act as interpreter for him in our local Waitrose. He'd ask for something and would receive a look of complete bafflement back. Hilarious at the time!

    I'd say that today Shrek is definitely a St Mirren fan. :-)

    I agree. You don't sound overly cultish or anything off kilter. Just perhaps a tad relieved?
    I thin we are going to have fun!

    I think you can download adobe flash for free, it only takes a second. Or you could try re-sizing your photo if it's a jpeg, making it smaller is usually easier to upload, I usually change mine to blog or email size.
