The Reading Room!

Welcome to the Reading Room!

Alan of Success Warrior sent me an email the other day asking whether I was interested in starting a reading group with him.  He’s diving head first into college, and is finding that he actually likes this “English stuff” – this living in the grey areas of interpretation and analysis that his career in law enforcement rarely afforded him.

I was ALL OVER IT.  I was missing my old book club terribly and, even though I’m in it up to here with work and kids and, well, life, I jumped at the opportunity to get right into reading with a group again.

Alan’s looking into getting us set up for a pod cast, so we can do a call-in live discussion.  EVERYONE who wants to read is welcomed.  I say that when it comes to investigating something -books, movies, poetry, pretty much anything – the more the merrier.  I’m constantly delighted (though I’ve ceased to be amazed) by the fact that every time – EVERY TIME – I talk about a piece of literature with someone, I come away with something new to think about.  That totally geeks me out!.

So, what do you say?  Wanna join us?
