Email

I love reading personal email. Unfortunately I don’t always get to respond to emails in a timely or lengthy manner. I respond to technical questions from members and questions about membership asap; it often take me much longer to respond to other emails, if I’m able to at all. Sometimes I respond to email in my blog if the topic or questions are ones many people would enjoy reading.

The more I like your email, the longer it may take me to respond as I want to do a good job of it. This could take days, weeks — even months or YEARS. I put all of the email I want/need to respond to in a folder labeled “RESPOND TO FANS” and try to set aside special time to focus on thoughtfully replying to email, but I am often too afraid to open that folder and tackle the many emails waiting there for me. Still, this folder is the number-one priority in my inbox.

Make sure you approve my email address so it doesn’t get sorted into your junk mail folder:

Bottomfeeder: A Novel

by Bob Fingerman

For some reason I *want* to only give this book three stars but that would be a lie; I didn't just "like it", I actually "REALLY liked it".

I'm not familiar with Fingerman's other work, but just being aware of...

The Lady Who Liked Clean Restrooms: The Chronicle of One of the Strangest Stories Ever to Be Rumoured About Around New York

by J.P. Donleavy

A cute little morbid trick of a book and so short I can say that I kind of enjoyed it. I appreciated the casual way considering whoring was treated, but am guessing it wasn't really casual and was supposed to illustrate just how far she had...

The Intuitionist

by Colson Whitehead

I loved the atmosphere and tone of the book. I enjoy reading about characters who are socially isolated and/or solitary by choice. I also enjoy reading about the lives of machines especially when they're described with a touch of mysticism ...

Young Men in Spats

by P.G. Wodehouse

I might have enjoyed this even more than the Wooster & Jeeves books. LOVED the last story, which was oddly disturbing (only mildly so, of course, which made it very surreal). Also appreciated the self-consciousness (again, MILD) regarding c...
