Was the villain in your short story named Sum Ting Wong?

It is now! Good one, Fred.

Just finished The Fourth Bear. Hilarious! Jasper Fforde has another detective series following the character of Thursday Next. I might have to break down and buy the first book.

Started reading The Shining. Never read the book, so I figured it was about time.

I just purchased a book with four Chandler novels in it and another book by Hammett with five books in one. I am currently reading The Big Sleep by Chandler and I must say it is really good PI stuff. I highly recommend it.

I realized that there are a lot of Shakespeare's works I haven't read, so I am working my way through a book of his complete works. I'm about a third of the way through right now, but it's going to take me a while to complete.

I am currently reading: Desperation: Steven King, Stranger in a Strange Land: Heinlein, and Fahrenheit 451: Ray Bradbury which tell of an awful future where the world refuses to move over to Celsius.
