About Me
I started in bookselling when Porter Square Books opened a little over three years ago. I am there full time now as the web manager and one of the magazine buyers. Right now I'm reading Finnegans Wake by James Joyce (novel), and The Savage Detectives (novel), Reinventing Gravity by John Moffat (science) The Reality Dysfunction (Scifi) and as well as current issues of Smithsonian, and The New York Review of Books. I've also published fiction, poetry, and essays here and there and am a reviewer for bookslut.com.
