    Anyway...since I can't post links here, I updated my profile to include a few things like links to the recent video interview of me which posted on various Gannett news sites, and the first newspaper article about me...I was going to say here that I found this site because one of my poems was read at the Fermanagh Festival in Northern Ireland for Poetry Day (UK) Oct. 3...they read a different poem at a different site in Enniskillen on the hour from 8AM to 8PM...my poem was the last read btw, at the Enniskillen Fire Station by local author Ken Ramsey...I found this site because I wanted to read a couple of the other poems that were read, and they showed up here...still can't post the link...oh well...

    So glad I found you. I chose this site as a link for Mark Twain's Letters From Earth, the subject of my recent blog series. I'm an author interested in fun fiction that models what a secure future would look like as a steady state. My hobbies include domestic birds and dogs, music and painting. My favorite authors are Tolkein, Colin Tudge, and Lewis Carroll.

    Hollow dare, I'm Introducing myself. I read a lot about writing. I don't write about reading. I am a liar.

    Greetings! I am a high school student with an interest in music, cinema, mathematics and literature. I recently ascertained that I vastly prefer poetry and non-fiction over novels and short stories, but I hope that will not restrain my posting too much. My favorite authors are John Milton, William Hazlitt, Vladimir Nabokov and James Joyce.
    To measure life, learn thou betimes, and know / Toward solid good what leads the nearest way; / For other things mild Heav'n a time ordains, / And disapproves that care, though wise in show, / That with superfluous burden loads the day, / And when God sends a cheerful hour, refrains.

    Hello, everyone...

    As you can see my user name is Spring-heeled J (though I could've sworn I registered as that legendary spook/entity of Victorian folklore Spring-heeled Jack, but, what the hey...) and I'm glad to be aboard a site whose members share the same interests as myself. Those interests? Virtually all classic (note the emphasis) literature, both fiction and non. A list of my favorite writers of fiction would include Homer, Virgil, Ovid, Dante, Boccaccio, Chaucer, Cervantes, Rablelais, Milton, Marlowe, Goethe, Dostoevsky, Hardy, Balzac, Hugo, Eliot and Twain. Favorite nonfictionalists would be Herodotus, Thucydides, Cicero, Augustine, Froissart, Voltaire, Gibbon, Burke, von Ranke, Tocqueville, Spengler and Durant. Philosophy-wise my far and away favorite would be Nietzsche.

    Once again: I'm happy to be here, and I hope it's going to be a lot of fun,

    Rob

    Hi -- Bert Elliott here, 1974 honors graduate of the University of St Thomas in Houston with degrees in English Literature, specializing in the Romantics (you know, Bryan, Kelly & Sheets)
    and Fine Art, specialty of photography, which I taught as a teaching assistant. Got a BA & BFA, plus I had an AA earlier from a junior college I did my first two years in, in a year. Not bad
    for only finishing the eighth grade in public school. But enough about me, tell me about you . . .
