I'm a seventeen-year-old unschooler (and have been since I left the ninth grade half-way through). My daily life consists of reading, my job, reading, my friends, reading, volunteerism, and reading.

My favorite books (of the moment) are Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee, The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce, One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and The Prophet by Kahlil Gibran. I'm also really into political writing (Common Sense, The Communist Manifesto, etc.)

:wave: Hi Cien, welcome to Lit-Net.

If you're into political writings, might I humbly suggest Emma Goldman (http://dwardmac.pitzer.edu/anarchist_archives/goldman/GoldmanCW.html)?

cuppajoe: I'll definitely read her stuff -- seems fascinating. Your not-a-blog here is also interesting.

Niamh: Thanks!

Adolescent09: How do you like being homeschooled?
