About Me

I live with my husband and two mutts in New England, where I teach Freshman Composition at a college. I recently completed my MFA degree in fiction and am revising a novel.

Wanna know about some of my crafty favorites? I like most colors, but I especially favor pink, green, and black, although I'm incorporating more brown in my life--chocqua is getting to be a favorite, too.

In terms of knitting, I'm a self-proclaimed yarn snob. I like rich colors and nice fibers. I'm yearning to get more into crochet--it was the gateway craft for me when I was a kid. I've been doing more embroider lately and love Sublime Stitching's patterns as well as the Stitchettes from Wee Wonderfuls.

Favorite Music

Dan Bern, Johnny Cash, Jill Solbule, Emmy Lou Harris, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Lucinda Williams, Alejandro Escavedo

Favorite Movies

Say Anything, Titus, Hamlet (Branagh's), Colin Firth P&P, Little Miss Sunshine

Favorite Television

Sex and the City, Deadwood, Ugly Betty, the Sopranos, Pushing Daisies, Weeds, Entourage

Favorite Crafts

Knitting, spinning, sewing, embroidery, watercolor, weavette weaving, crochet (hairpin lace and amigurumi), and book making.

Comment: Hi Beverly! Thanks for the great year long reading log. I found quite a few books that I'll be checking out this year. I also really like how well you review each book. Happy reading & writing in 2010! The book mark is cool also, did you make it?
Response: I'm glad you liked my reading log! I did not make the bookmark--I did an inkle-loom bookmark exchange and rec'd it in that...and thought it would be nice to share with a fellow reader! Enjoy!!

Comment: Terrific Log, haven't had a chance to look at your blog but definitely will. I like how you mix audio books into your collection. I would be interested hearing more about your Kindle experience. I've had the Kindle on my "want" list for awhile now.
Response: PM me if you have Kindle questions--I LOVE mine. I was already an avid reader, but the Kindle has made it even easier to have books and magazines with me at all times!

What fun to get a penny post card in the mail! I AM about a hundred years old, but I actually remember when they didn't need an additional stamp. Thanks for your note.

Take care,

Thanks for that etsy link - she's got some cool stuff. Hey, I've just started a Keri Smith-inspired swap http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/9620 Hope you think about joining it! I wanted to join that 10 things... list hosted by brokenmelody, but can't cos I'm not in the US. She thinks it's a great idea as well, hopefully we can get a good bunch of swappers!
