Tietoja minusta Once upon a time, on a dark and stormy night, I was born. My father's family name being Abrams, and my christian name David...just don't call me Ishmael. Since then, it's been the best of times, the worst of times...but mostly some pretty ordinary times.
I spent my youth in Wyoming (raised in the shadow of the Tetons), then met the woman of my dreams, married, settled down and raised a lovely family. Along the way, I earned a B.A. in English from the University of Oregon. For a couple of years, I was a reporter for newspapers in Montana. In 1988, I joined the Army as a journalist. This has taken me to such far-flung exotic places as Japan, Thailand, the Comoros Islands, and El Paso, Texas. And, of course, an 11-month tour in Iraq. In my spare time, I write fiction. My stories, essays and interviews have been published in Esquire, Glimmer Train Stories, The Readerville Journal, Greensboro Review and Fish Stories, among others. An essay on fishing in Alaska appears in Alaska Passages, published by Sasquatch Books. One of my short stories was listed as one of the "100 Other Distinguished Stories of 1998" in the anthology The Best American Short Stories, 1999 edited by Amy Tan. In 2004, I earned a Master of Fine Arts desgree in Creative Writing from the University of Alaska.

I share a love of Wyoming too, I spent a summer in the Bighorns and am still haunted by the people and the place. I was born in Maryland, grew up in the nooks and crannies of the Chesapeake Bay and am equally haunted by the smells and tastes of home. I envy your travels and your talent. Nice to meet you,
Mel

But, lo, it is a dark and stormy Alaska-night, and I've had "a couple". And books are on my brain (par normal).
I notice you manage to add books to your library at roughly the same pace that I do. Are you able to read all of yours?
Boy, not me. Though I try... Oh, how I try. (Then I get the brilliant notion of reading "Kristin Lavransdatter" and the immediately after: "THe Greenlanders" and things get WAAAAAY slowed down.)
By the way, how are you liking Bookmooch? I am debating which "swapping" site to sign up for. I have embarrassing numbers of multiples that I can't "resell".

I think you might like "Maybe the Moon" by Armistead Maupin.

Your writing makes me long for the days when people wrote letters with quills and stamped in wax and were capable of professing emotion without the colon or the parentheses.
Thanks.

Nice to see here as well as at Readerville. You popped up on my list as someone I share a number of books with. Not surprising considering you have 4000! books listed here.

Yes, many wonderful books...but at 4,000-plus, they can be both a blessing and a curse, I suppose. So many books, so little time to read...
As a matter of fact, I *am* working on a novel based on my Iraq experiences. It's been in the works for a couple of years now, and will probably take at least that much longer before it's finished.
As for the Queen of Murder, I was lucky enough to be invited to write a blog for the Official Agatha Christie website, which you can find at Reading Agatha Christie
Thanks for stopping by my little dusty corner of Library Thing!

I am about a quarter way through adding my Agatha Christies. I came upon a treasure trove at the old Hunt-Phelan home in Memphis. Before they renovated it they had a big yard sale; the oldest descendent had died and he had an incredible collection of pulp Christie paperbacks from the 60s and before. They start at page 9 of my library, and I still have many more to add! I was excited to read the Agatha Christie page you have, and thought you might be interested in these old covers.
All best,
Alisa

Just finished and entered into my site a book titled "Girls" by Frederick Busch. I did a little poking around and found that you and I share 164 common titles. Enough for me to trust your opinion :>) I would like to read another by Busch but I have a TBR stack that is out of control and any thoughts of bringing it to heel any time in the near future are few and far between. If I am going to spend time with Busch I would really like a recommendation. He has quite a few novels available. Would you have any suggestions ?

Just found this site and love it. As I enter in more and more books, your name is at the top of my "users with your books." Where exactly, just out of curiousity, is Richmond Hill? My wife and I live in Milledgeville. I've read some of your work in Glimmer Train--good stuff-- and a great place to publish. Also, just a sidebar, we live on Lake Sinclair which has some pretty good bass fishing. Good catfish and crappie as well. Cheers, JPB III

Have you come across Tlingit people in Alaska? I am working on something in their language, and some day should connect with them. Thought of going there for summer job but really want to make sure I get my first book on Maori published here (by my own company). In China, teaching English. You share some of my classic books but just about 5. That's major on my list - many of my books may be not so common.
So were in Iraq.... with army? Big experience??

If you drop Tim a line, he'll put you on the LibraryThing authors listing, and you may find that there are more people here who have read your work.
I'm somewhat in awe of your very detailed, thoughtful reviews.

I know what you mean. I only wish there was a way to put books I've read but don't own in a different catalogue. My list would be so long!
