My name is Ana, and... I got a book from the Free Forum today.

But it was just one! There were, like, twenty that I didn't get.

And, um, I bought that whole B&N gift card deal. I would have gotten more, but thankfully it was 'limit one per customer'.

My name is Christa. I'm only on my second cup of coffee and I've already gotten a book today. 12 yesterday. And then there was that Fictionwise coupon...

I also found out that Sourcebooks freebies on Books on Board still have BoB rewards attached to them. It could make things difficult for me. I mean, it's freebies for freebies! I'm using calibre therapy so that I can clearly see the extent of my problem, but it only makes it worse.

My own calibre problem is bad... any new freebie has to:

1. Go into Calibre.
2. Have title and author adjusted.
3. Remove stupid internet metadata and apply my own tags. Genre, source, (un)reviewed.
4. Download cover and apply. Get ISBN if available.
5. Covert from epub to epub so that new cover will "stick" properly in Nook reader.
6. Run Calibre plugin to remove any embedded font files.
7. Update Calibre2opds catalog. (Thank GODS this is a batch script I have scheduled in Windows Task Scheduler to run nightly.)

In paper I have about 300+ books waiting to be read. Ebooks would be around 200, so I'm firmly within the 500 - 1000 bracket. The problem is that I can't seem to prevent myself from buying even more books.

At least this is a healthy addiction (that's until a bookshelf falls on me!).

I was wondering about that, but I thought maybe you were a night owl. Or bat, or whatever that simultaneously adorable and frightening avatar is.

Ah, yes, I do see the resemblance. Thank you for the information.
