Tietoja minusta I have very little patience for sitting still in a classroom, which explains my lack of degrees (not that I'm knocking university - I may yet return). I can, however, spend vast amounts of time immersed in a good book. People who know me like to call me "self-educated", though I guess I'm really being educated by other writers. I also like to learn by conversation with fascinating people, whether in my my native NYC or away on one of my rare forays out of town. Though I'd like to travel more, I'm usually quite satisfied ensconced in my home library with my ridiculously cute Persian cat Zenobia, a good cup of Darjeeling and a historical novel. When the weather is pleasant I prefer to read under the shade of a massive tree, and sometimes I wish I had my own garden. I also watch too much TV for my own good.

Tietoja kirjastostani I tend to haunt the public libraries often enough, so I don't think this list quite reflects the amount of books I've read in my lifetime. However, there's enough of me in it, as can be seen from the amounts of history, tea and poetry books I have in my personal collection. It may also show I'm a raving Anglophile. I am a somewhat curious person and like to learn about a variety of things, so I try not to limit my collection to only a few genres - but I do have my priorities!
