    Awildflower,

    That is my dream, to visit all the places she had been. It's too bad that with 4 kids, Caroline only got one grandkid, and she never had kids herself (Rose).

    Up Till Now, the autobiography of William Shatner. It's very disjointed and packed with guilt but I'm liking it. Bought it for a quarter at a friends of the library sale. What a steal. W.Once

    Actually, I'm writing a novella and so that's what I'm reading at the moment. I have to read/edit my own writing quite a bit.

    It's a fanfiction novella about two gay cops in LA solving the murder of a dirty FBI agent who was involved in heroin smuggling.

    I've been writing fiction for 13 years, ever since I decided to fade. I also write science fiction, erotica, adventures, and samurai stories, Japanese fairy tales...I lived in Japan for a while, and Southeast Asia and still enjoy the culture, food and history.

    The last book I read was a science fiction novel set about 20, 30 years in the future about the growing political totalitarianism of the right wing factions in America called "Little Brother". Read it, it's good.

    Imagine going to school or work, going on the internet, recreating, watching TV in your home and everything you do is monitored by some sort of electronic spy system because of right wing paranoia about terrorism and disloyalty to the government? That's what it's about.

    Reading through "The Dresden Files", I think I'm in love with the hero. Also reading "Not Even Wrong: A Father's Journey Into The Lost History Of Autism", a fascinating read that is giving me bits of insight about my youngest son's condition.

    I also have read William Shatner's autobiography. It's a lot of fun, but predictably, it's all about him.

    I happen to love egotistical know it alls, though. A lot of the worlds most interesting people are egotistical jerks. Humility, like much else promoted by the JWs, is vastly overrated.

    I love all Walter Mosley (Easy Rawlings Series) books. The last was Blonde Faith.
