The Rest
April 27, 2012
Here are more that I am ploughing through. E-readers and online books are obviously too new-fangled for me.
New Diet
April 27, 2012
My book diet has changed a fair bit of late. I used to be a little impatient and disdainful of working folk who claimed they didn’t have time to read fiction. I take back my snotty attitude. Man… I can’t believe when I last read poetry or a work of fiction.
“Where the soul meets a business plan”.. That’s pushing it.
Narnia
February 7, 2012
The Narnia Chronicles – my favorite from my childhood. I spent so many happy hours reading and re-reading the books and longing to join Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy.
An Ode to Using Profanity in Literature

I enjoyed this. A worrying confession.

Happiness Is …
October 1, 2011
… Lolling around reading frivolous things.
In relation to my post below… I’m feeling particularly “badass” as I’m due to give a speech tonight at a fundraiser where Art Outreach is the benefitting charity. I should be working on my speech instead of reading about the provenance of blacmange!

Time for some Serious Therapy
May 21, 2011
It’s felt like I have not even had time to catch my breath these last few months. The last fortnight has been especially grueling. I still have a ton to wade through before I get some downtime. I’m calling a moratorium on work for the weekend though. I’ve had it. I’m not setting my alarm clock for tomorrow morning and I’m taking some much needed reading therapy to bed and will stay in bed and read to my heart’s content tomorrow. I’ve missed reading for hours in bed. Need to restore my equilibrium. Going to dive into my favs tonight (… kinda sad that I’m so darn excited about getting in some reading).
Bodoni Bedlam
April 16, 2011
I love paper sculpture, and I’ve got a small collection of pop-up books. Boy, am I lusting for Bodoni Bedlam, a pop-up books which displays the font, Bodoni, while telling a little tale of adventure. Gorgeous and oh so charming!

I’m Trying
February 28, 2011
I’m trying! But fiction is so much more enjoyable. Sigh.
