Been here a while; big fan

Hello!

I discovered your forum shortly after purchasing my Kindle. I am amazed by both the amount and the quality of literature here! I suppose I should do what the front page says and introduce myself.

I was a minister once upon a time, but I now do software support for financial institutions. (Long story, and probably boring.) My children have grown, and I seem to have more time on my hands than I used to.

For me, reading is a priority shortly following breathing. I spend about two hours a day on the bus, and a good book makes that time the highlight of the day. My primary interests are theology and spirituality. Of these, my focus is primarily Christian theology and Christian mysticism, but I have an interest in Jewish and Sufi texts as well, and at least a curiosity about Buddhism. I can get into fiction sometimes as well (I'm not quite as stuffy as I sound).

I've learned to format quit a bit from HTML, mainly from sacred-texts.com and religion-online.org.

Again, I wish to express my gratitude for this site, and all the work done in making all this literature available.

Hi Old Narnian and welcome to MobileRead. If you find breathing more important than reading, you are not as addicted as most of the people here!
