I've started this, but it will be a few days before I will have time to finish. I like this so much more than the standard "write your autobiography" or "write your obituary" assignments that I remember from writing cou…

...but I'm hardly an expert. I agree with everything TinkEsq said. One thing I would add is that some schools do not have separate classes for adults and children. I, personally, do not like taking classes with small …

I wrote out my diaries in blank books for years. I made the transition to journaling on the computer about five years ago. There is a certain satisfaction to writing things out on paper. I actually prefer the computer…

I've been journaling for about as long as I've known how to write. It's how I work through my problems. There's a book called "The New Diary" (ISBN 0874771501) that tells about different journaling techniques. Maybe y…

I'm "cleothecat" on livejournal. If you go to my calendar and select my August 15, 2004 entry, you'll find my account of my first caught book. Other than that, my journal is primarily about the places I travel to. It'…

The best thing I've found for a sore throat is green tea. If I get that scratchy feeling that doesn't go away when I swallow, drinking green tea always makes the scratchiness go away. When it comes back, I drink more g…

I started it on a train trip across the US. The trip ended before the book did. It's not that it was particularly challenging reading. There was just such an awful lot of it.

I bought "Out of the Silent Planet" for my nephew for Christmas. The cover says that it's part of Lewis's "Space Trilogy". I didn't even know Lewis had a "Space Trilogy". I started reading it over the weekend. (Do ot…

That's exactly how it was for me when I first started listening to audiobooks. My mind would start to wander and I'd suddenly snap back into the moment and have no idea what was going on in the story. I think I was luc…

I'm not in the UK, but I feel sad that no one has responded to this. Maybe, since there were so few copies sent outside the US, it would be good get some of the copies that are currently in the US sent to other places. …

I've never done that but the Eurail office at the main train station (Hauptbahnhof) in Munich has a "take a book/leave a book" shelf. There's even an internet cafe across the street where you can write your release note…

I used to feel funny about releasing other people's books. Then I decided that once the book is given to me, it's mine and I can release, trade, or RABCK it as I chose. I realised this after a book that I traded to som…

My library has this one but it's currently checked out. I put in a request for them to hold it for me when it comes back. Thanks!

I just checked my library's online catalogue. My library's great. They have lots of audiobooks and you can borrow them for up to four weeks. Anyway, their only audio copy of "Tell No One" is listed as stolen. Darn! …

Well, I don't have kids, but I still love good children's fiction, so that's definitely a thought. I listened to "Two Plays for Voices" a couple of months ago. That Snow White story was creepy. I mean that in a go…

I am getting ready to drive home for the holidays. It's about fourteen hours each way and I'll be alone in the car. I'm looking for ideas for audiobooks to keep me company on the trip. I'm sort of a newbie to audioboo…
