Welcome Dori! Great to have you around, I too adore Notre Dame and Les Mis! :D
Hi, everybody. I'm Sezgin from Turkey. I love fantastic literature and my fovourite writer is, of course, J.R.R. Tolkien. Another writer that I really adore is Edgar Allen Poe-especially his short stories. At the moment, I am reading Dragon Wing, the first book of The Death Gate Cycle. By the way I am 21 years old and attending American Literature department at university.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR NAME! (As you can see, I'm a Lord of the Rings nerd :D) Welcome to the forums; you'll enjoy it here.
And I love your signature, as well. :) Especially, the picture of Galadriel.

Thank you Logos. I will have to check that out. I own his complete works, but I always enjoy looking on the web as well :) This is my first time on this site, so I'm still checking out all the cool stuff we can do on the control panel.Quote:

I have been re-reading Howard's End and woke up an hour ago, dreaming in it; and since there's no getting back to sleep, thought to 'google' it, found this site, and joined. A constant and obsessive reader, I'm mostly solitary in this occupation: living on a small island, there's lots of time for reading. I share my house with my two youngest children -- girls, 20 and 11, two cats -- Sushi & Sasha, and Pippin (a puppy). Other things I do are playing guitar & learning to play the harp -- classical guitar and folk, since I'm a child of the 70's (I mean, I was a teenager then) -- and celtic stuff on the harp, because I love it. I've earned an MA in English, taught several years as an adjunct and have been finishing up another MA in history. I should have started a Ph.D. in history a few years ago, but postponed it since I'm plagued by 'incompletes'! I read all kinds of books: classics, urban fantasy, fantasy, mystery. I read poetry as well and adore Shakespeare. Of course, I am writing a novel (two, actually), although I seem to think about it writing more than doing it. Now, I think I'm sleepy enough to get back to sleep. 'night.
Welcome!!!
Hi! Welcome to the forum, islandharper!
Hello All,
I look forward to reading your reviews and rants! I'm from Toronto, Canada and I love books. I'm going to be an English teacher so this seems like a good place to make friends.
Thanks,
