Back in Business...again
Hello, I am so happy to be back in business after literally years of hacking my way through other less-than-literary jungles.

Friday 'Fess Up
Well, you are all more than kind to welcome me back. Thank you!
Today I fess up that I haven't started my RIP reading yet. I am waiting for the Wilkie Collins book to arrive. I want to be sure and finish that one, if nothing else, for the challenge.
And a recommendation for everyone: If you haven't read Zeitoun by Dave Eggers, please be sure to add it to your list. Even if you hated Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. A definite must-read...you will be on the edge of your seat.

She's baaaack!
Hello, friends and fellow bloggers!
I've been gone a long, long stretch - it has been a helluva year, I can tell you that much. Think: California budget cuts. Yeah, education plus recession equals no money for paper clips.
However, I am jumping in for Carl's RIP challenge!!!!
Two books (alas, quote the Raven, wish-it-was-more!):
1. The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins
2. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Seth Grahame Smith

John Updike RIP
John Updike is dead at 76.
Okay, he was never one of my favorites. I thought the Rabbit series were okay, but generally I didn't relate well to the whole older man focused on his sexuality themes that Updike tended to focus on.
Still, you can't get away from his influence on contemporary writing.
One of my very favorite short stories, however, was written by John Updike. It is called A&P. Enjoy.
