Of all things Geek. I am…
I recently read a pretty good book. But it was published at the height of publishing’s trilogy mania and while I enjoyed it, I didn’t quite enjoy it enough to continue with the trilogy. And that’s kind of a shame, because about two-thirds the way through the book, I knew there wouldn’t be any answers when I finished it.
Now, that’s not the case for all trilogies.

I love this blog. It has been a constant pleasure to write and share all of these posts. It’s not going anywhere, but it will probably change in some ways, as have I.

Is Raymond Gunt the worst person ever? At a minimum, he’s had some help…
This book’s main character, Raymond Gunt, may in fact be the worst person ever, or he may just be proof that assumptions and a lack of context make for the worst in people. Truth be told, that’s probably and sadly more common than we’d all like to think.

Did you know that magazine writers and short story crafters can have greatest hits collections, just like any band? That’s what The Thurber Carnival is for prolific writer James Thurber.
There is something wonderful about Thurber’s prose, as well as his drawings, his perspective, his personal history, and his humor.
