About 1998
This is the first year I was logging my reads in a calendar; I started with a little date book I bought at the airport on my way to Oz in April
So, here goes :)
- I left Nacogdoches Tx, at 8am the morning of April 1...
- 4 hr bus drive to Houston
- Lunch with my friend Amy and her mom, who then took me to the airport
- 4 hr flight from Houston to Vegas
- I stayed a week with my Aunt and her husband in Pahrump
- 4 hr flight from Vegas to SanFran. 3 hr layover
- 17-1/2 hour flight from SanFran to Sidney
- 4 hr flight from Sidney to Brisbane
- 1 hr taxi to my grandmother's house
- slept for 14 hrs :)
So, here's the reading for the year
- 11 entire anthologies
- 16 partial anthologies
- 6 entire collections
- 14 partial collections
- 1 partial magazine
- 128 novels
- 13 Omnibuses (complete or partial)
- 3 essays
- 244 short stories
January 1998
Though I didn't start logging these in my little calendar, I read at least one short story per day while saying at Mawmaw's and helping with the kids and I logged these on the contents pages of the anthologies/collections...
