Welcome to my little book blog.  I'm new here, but I read ALOT, which you can probably tell from my bookshelves.  This is my first actual blog post, since I don't normally do that either.  When I'm not working as a software developer or going to Grad school (for a masters in criminology), I read.  Ebooks, paperbacks, hardcovers, you name it, I read it.  The genres I read are all over the place to: scifi, fantasy, mystery, thriller, horror, romance, chick lit, history, and pretty much anything that interests me or sounds interesting from the publishers blurb.

How to Survive the Stabbing Weasels (and Other True Stories) Kindle Edition

by Nathan Waldrip (Author)
 
How to Survive the Stabbing Weasels is a collection of hilarious and inspirational stories of dealing with and overcoming adversity. While in college, the author was diagnosed with a neurological condition and multiple brain tumors that left him deaf. He finished college to become a teacher and coach.
 
He doesn't mention me by name, but I am one of his former transcribers in several college classes that we took together.  Great fun!
 
Alright, wrapping this up for now.  Seems pretty good for a first ever blog post.
