Quant a miFollowing my retirement in 2003 from the semiconductor industry in Silicon Valley, CA, I moved to Grants Pass, Oregon.

My hobbies include writing, travel, photography, reading, quilting, along with a multitude of textile and mixed media arts. I have been to 46 of the 50 states and plan to get to the last four in the next few years.

I am a member of The Jane Austen Society (JASNA).

Quant a
la meva bibliotecaI actually own all the books in my LibraryThing and have read the vast majority of them. However, I always have a backup of a few hundred books waiting to be read as one never wants to run out of books. My collection covers many genres and is also a reflection of my evolving literary interests over my lifetime. The genres include Classic Literature (Austen, Dickens, Wilde, etal), history, biography, general fiction, mystery, contemporary romance, romantic suspense, travel and theatre, as well as books on my various hobbies: quilting, embroidery, dollmaking, jewelry making, sewing, knitting, ad infinitim.

Memorable moments: walking down Charing Cross Road in London. There is no #84, but it is a charming street full of bookstores nonetheless. Also, visiting the many places where Jane Austen lived and meeting her relatives; also sitting in the room in the house where Jane passed away just outside of Winchester Cathedral. The homes of The Brontes, Dickens, Kipling, H.G. Wells, Louisa May Alcott, Hathorne, Longfellow and other authors have been equally compelling.
