You can read an interview with yours truly done by BookThink, providing ‘gold standard resources for booksellers & collectors’. And you can check me out on LinkedIn, where I’m fairly active. I’m passionate about books and am a entertainment junky of sorts. I am not a Kill Your Television type of bibliophile. No, I like my TV and love my Tivo and can likely discuss plot lines of Heroes or get excited about the new season of Project Runway.

Nevertheless, used books dominate my household, with shelves and shelves of them, spilling out onto piles on top of cabinets and other surfaces. What else is there to know? I love bicycling though I do less of it now that I’m a father, which is okay since fatherhood is the best and most important thing I’ve done and will continue to do for quite a long time.
