books ... I collect signed books ... or just books ... I love reading. conversely, I also collect pens and notebooks, since a writer can never have too many of either.

I used to collect books...I mean OLD old books (well I still have them). I have maybe 300 of them, the oldest is dated from 1801. I'm pretty sure they carry diseases lol But I love them anyway. Some are in very bad shapes but I just can't part with them. I also used to collect stamps when I was young.
Right now I seem to collect unopened mail LOL...I really should do something about the mess in my papers.

LOL - everyone's collections are so much more interesting.
I collect (or maybe it's hoard...now that I think about it) - homeschooling curriculum. If you walk into my house right now I have workbooks everywhere. Some we use, some are just put away for "later". I need to STOP.
My only other collections, which I can't afford to do anymore, is my Elfquest comic books.

You know, I kind of expected 'books' to be a given which is why I didn't mention it lol. I've also recently started to collect cover flats. So far I only have 4- one from Rachel Vincent, one from Vicki Pettersson, and two of Jeaniene Frost's. i kind of wish I had some Dark Days cover flats to put on the wall next to these... *hint*
Okay next question!
What is your desktop photo?
Mine is the cover of Black Magic Sanction. I am graced by Rachel and Bis's lovely selves every time I close google chrome!
btw: Newfiewife, Happy Belated Birthday!

*evil laugh* this is why it pays to go to Kim's signing in Cinncy ... I has cover flats *grins* I've also got one from Jeaniene, two from Vicki and one from Rachel ... I think ... might be three from Vicki ... I'd have to go count, and the binder is under a pile of stuff.
desktop photo ... is damn near pornographic .... anime style. I have a background from Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne ... mostly so I can remember the anime cause it looks amazing and I want to get it, but don't have the money right now, so I'm keeping it up till I do have money so I remember it. Seriously, if you like crazy violent sex-filled anime, go check it out ... looks amazing.

cover flats are exactly what they sound like .... the cover of a book, but laid out flat, before it goes on a book. they also usually have some extra info on the inside, release date, some of the publishers plans for pushing the book.

Ok, because I am in finals this week here are a few questions to tide you guys over until I allow myself to crawl out of my self imposed internet restrictions!
1. What kind of phone do you have?
2. Any hobbies aside from the obvious/usual?
3. Favorite place to eat out?
4. What do you like on your pizza?
Ready, set, GO!
