    Aside from reading, i love to travel. I have started on Rushdie, but switched to Piaget (the psychologist) for easy reading. I was blown away by Rushdie's first five pages. Wheww!

    Vampires, Witches & Were’s all that
    would like to invite you to participate in the ABC contest starting on July 1, 2008.
    I will post a thread that has the letters of the ABC's list, then start your own thread for example mine would be Sherry's ABC's and list the books that you read with those letters has the first letter in any title of book, it doesn't have to be in the genre either. Each person will be responsible for sending me their points via the group email at vampireswitchesweresallthat@yahoo.com. For every book you read during the time period (until the next letters are posted) you will receive 10 points in the email you must list the title, author, and pages so that if there is tie, we will use page count to break the tie. Everyone is eligible to win, even admin's as a third party will be keeping track of the points for me...so post the books you read...I will post the first letters on July 1.

    As always happy reading..
    Show me the books he loves and I shall know the man
    far better than through mortal friends.

    You write professionally then. What pen name do you use?

    There are alot of Filipino author that I admire; Jose Rizal (national hero),
    Rio Alma (a national artist - poet), Lualhati Bautista (writer), Ricky Lee (screenplay writer) and more. (Couldn't write them all here though. It'll take a long time
    for me to recall names.)

    ********

    See my avatar, that is Maningning Miclat. She writes poem and paints too.
    She died from a fall from a univerity where she teach and she's only 28
    that time.

    arspoetica says

    i will soon be reading The Satanic Verses, once i get my hands on it.
    would have love to read Lolita, but i havent got a copy yet. also with
    the famished road and devil on the cross, i've heard much about it and
    very much curious with how it was written.

    have you read it? how do you find it?

    so do i charles, one could not choose just one with S.K.'s books.
    the feelings and how the story is told in each book varies.
    I particularly like those books he wrote using Richard Bachman,
    a bit matured and not too fancy. I havent read Duma Key.

    ***

    have you read Lolita and the Satanic Verses?
