Tietoja minustaI am a writer, book reviewer, librarian, and cat rescuer, not necessarily in that order. My short fiction has appeared in Strange Horizons, Lady Churchill's Rosebud Wristlet, and two of the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds anthologies. I also have a story in The Sky's the Limit, an anthology from Pocket Books celebrating the 20th anniversary of Star Trek: The Next Generation (October 2007). I am a graduate of the Clarion West Writers Workshop (class of 2000). Hobbies include entertaining my collection of ex-stray cats, making art trading cards, learning Japanese, and trying to recover my long-lost German fluency.

Tietoja kirjastostaniMy physical library consists primarily of science fiction and fantasy, young adult fiction, children's books, and girls' career romance novels from the 1930s to the 1960s.

I hope this doesn't make me a bad Library Thinger, but I have been including books (identified with tags as such) that I either no longer own, or that I have read but do not own. I'm a librarian, so I'm all about information and data. And I cannot bear to lose the information about books I've read, just because I don't have the physical book in hand anymore. You may notice I've gone a little crazy with the descriptive tags, but they're my favorite thing about LT -- well, that and the covers.

Wow, I do own the most! I'm not completely shocked.

Yes, Traveling Shoes is Apple Bough. (They all got those Shoes-tie-in titles when they crossed the Atlantic.) I love Streatfeild because she was (one of?) the first to write about kids actually doing *professions*, and working hard at artistic careers at a young age.

So with the understanding that my tastes are skewed by my love of performance (and skewed by being totally rabid about these books as a kid :), my favorites are probably Ballet Shoes, Theatre Shoes/Curtain Up, Skating Shoes/White Boots, & Circus Shoes/Circus is Coming. Second favorites: Family Shoes/The Bell Family, Tennis Shoes, and Traveling Shoes/Apple Bough.

If you read a few of them you'll definitely notice the same character types and struggles popping up. I thought the recent Ballet Shoes movie came out pretty well, actually - I was pleasantly surprised.
I'm amused that you added a book subtitled "The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need" and promptly added two more screenwriting books. Obviously Blake Snyder was not the be-all and end-all he figured himself to be.
Oh, yes, and thank you for the nice comment on my review. That was actually a book my sisters and I owned when we were teens. I've acquired most of my Scholastics as an adult. I really missed out!
Thanks very belatedly, Amy, for the comment! I've only just gotten back to Library Thing...for a time it was just more than I could do to keep working on getting books catalogued, but as soon as it's summer break I plan to keep at it.

I only learned of the maltshop genre fairly recently. Many, many vintage Scholastics are in this genre, especially the "T" books. (The books for older children and Young adults are numbered T and TK, mostly, although you can find maltshops in the TXs, too.)
Hi Amy:

Fan-geekdom indeed! You're very lucky. Sounds like a treat; a tour AND a party.

I really like BSG a lot. That's one of the advantages of being married - you learn about what interests your spouse and sometimes find something new that you can enjoy together.

And you write! Wonderful. I can't remember the exact quote, but somewhere in JD Salinger's Glass family stories is a quote about writing what you want to read... hmm. That sounds like a thread - to find the quote and ask people what they'd write.

I've always admired people who write and get published.

Have a great holiday season!

In response to your question (from last year) on whether I was associated with UND, the answer is no. I just have a general interest in regional events and history, science & science fiction. I'm from Minnesota and attended the U of M.

Sorry this response is so late - I entered my books in one large binge and haven't been back until now.
