Not specific to this entry -- but to let ou know that I am reading your blogs and getting lost for awhile in great links (your bookgroup blog, ceative memories, and other blog links including to the Lost challenge -- which ends soon). Happy Holidays.
And I have ideas about an online bookgroup for 2009. Very different from my at-home book group. Probably 10 -12 members, probably all women, hopefully diverse -- in age, location, orientation, culture, whatever. Interested? I know of two others so far who are -- one is my daughter, 27 yo, and another is around 33, a special ed teacher in MA). Maybe each of us would invite one other from our extended circle of acquaintances. I have a few others in mind (and should have my age group -- I'm 58 -- and older represented). More ideas so if you are interested please email me:
