READIN

Jeremy's journal

Although I have done it all these thirty years or more, although I live my life surrounded by other people who are always doing it, still I think that there are few activities so worthy of inspection as the reading of novels.

— Juan Gabriel Várgas

READIN

READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

READIN has been visited approximately 236,737 times since October, 2007.

Check out Ellen's writing at Patch.com.

What's of interest:

➪ Oswaldo Aiffil dibuja un retrato inquietante de los hombres -- ejércitos de hombres y de buitres -- que se ganan una vida escasa buscando reciclajes en los basureros venezolanos.
➪ It's summertime at Subnormality: The pink-haired girl and the Sphynx are chilling out on the steps downtown; people-watching and chatting. A great way to kill an afternoon.

(And for those of you in London: Michael Kelland is dancing to the tune of Subnormality and Dinosaur Comix. Check him out at The Yard.)
➪ Ramsey Shehadeh has a story in the new issue of Weird Tales -- he is happy to have published it, I am looking forward to reading it.
(Other links of interest at my Google+ page. It's recommended!)
