Comment on Reading Down the Pile by SUMB44

SUMB44 — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 20:47:58 +0000

Most recent reads: Books 1-4 (out of 20) of the Aubrey/Maturin series by Patrick O’Brian (Master and Commander, Post Captain, H.M.S. Surprise, and The Mauritius Command) – there is a surprising element of romance in these novels – albeit of the ‘Pride and Prejudice’ variety.

Currently reading: ‘The Jennifer Morgue’ by Charles Stross – If Ian Flemming and H.P. Lovecraft had a literary child it would be Charles Stross.

Recently acquired books for imminent reading: Inside Cyber Warfare: Mapping the Underworld, Hacking: The Next Generation (Animal Guide), Calculating Credibility: How Military Leaders Assess Military Threats, and War and the Engineers: The Primacy of Politics Over Technology.

Hi Hope! Thanks so much for having me at the Salon and I cannot wait to meet you either! And shamelessly plug away! I would love to have a satellite Salon here in Los Angeles.

Have you ever considered adding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual learner,I found that to be more helpful well let me know how it turns out. This is good…thanks for sharing

We’re very much looking forward to having you with us at Lady Jane’s in April. The Salon turns one-year-old in February and in the midst of reflecting on a great–magical–first year, we’re super excited to roll out a 2010 chockful of great guests.

By way of a shameless plug, we’re also doing a Special Event Lady Jane’s Salon at the Romantic Times BOOK Lovers Convention later in the month and an Author Workshop for authors interested in starting satellite salons in their hometowns. It will be a challenge to bring the New York vibe to Columbus but my co-founder, Leanna Renee Hieber is a native Ohio-an, so we’re game.

Anyhoo, Kate, I can’t wait to meet you and hear your reading.

Hope Tarr
Co-founder, Lady Jane’s Salon

Ha! That’s funny, I also moved to CA recently (about 5 months ago!). I had lived in Atlanta for a year before that doing a research fellowship before I decided to move out here with family. Now I live in the Central Valley, work, and help my aunt and uncle (they grow oranges).
In fact, we drive down to sell at the Hollywood Farmers market (on Ivar and Selma) every Sunday (my other uncle sells dates, I guess we’re a family of farmers).
If you go, you should stop by (you’ll probably get some free citrus, if you’re interested, lol)!

I can’t believe April is already here! Time is flying!

I miss Memphis, and your article reminded me of some of the reasons why I miss it. I’m planning a trip there in the spring of next year. I am looking forward to it.
