- history, historical fiction, biographies, historical romance, poetry
The books listed here are books I own, have borrowed from the library or friends or books I read years ago in school.
I'm starting to add the children and young adult books I bought for my daughters. Sometimes they like my choices, sometimes they don't. But, if it is listed I read it. - Om mig
- I have a degree in Elementary Education that I have never used. (found out I didn't like teaching my senior year at college...go figure...should have stayed with History) I love music, theater and of course books. I read mostly historical fiction. I like poetry that I can understand. I'm not a fast reader, but a steady one. Sometimes I will slow down while reading a book just so I can savor it a little longer. Like many readers I have tried my hand at writing, but I don't think it is meant to be. If I was meant to be writer I would be writing and not thinking of excused for not writing. I'm married and have two daughters that are turning out much smarter than their mother. (thank goodness)
My other interest in music. I sing with a group called Mature Mob. It is a group of people over the age of 50 who put a show on every year to raise money for the Senior Service of Central Illinois. The group is not only singers, but tap dancers, ball room dancers and country western line dancers. The shows have corny jokes and a lot of old song as well as newer ones. Over the last seventeen years the group has donated over $200,000 to Senior Sevices.
(Since I first published this profile I have parted ways with Mature Mob. I still think it is a worthwhile group, but it was time for me move along.) - Vistelseort
