Cool Hello... Is this thing on?
Hello, my name is Tim Massey and I've only recently started reading again in my life. I'm 33 and recently started back in college in Colorado Springs to work on my Bachelor is Fine Arts.

I've always been a techie guy and once I decided to pick up my first few books, I found that the technology has finally caught up with the needs of readers. I'm looking forward to getting my first E-Reader very soon. I've already installed Calibre, which is how I found the wonderful people here. I've been reading forums for a few days now and decided to fill out my profile.

I'm still on the fence as to whether I should join the 100 books in 2011 group yet. I don't want to overstep my abilities and possibly lose interest. Maybe 25 books is realistic, and I'll shoot for 30. I guess it depends on how much homework my next semesters classes give me. Looking at 17 credit hours right now.

Anyway, I'm working on Lee Child right now, on the 3rd book in the Jack Reacher series. I like High Fantasy and dystopian fiction the most, but anything could grab my attention at this point.

Favorite authors (right now):
  • R.A.Salvatore
  • Philip K. Dick
  • Douglas Adams
  • Tolkien
  • Stephen King

Looking forward to:
  • Terry Pratchett
  • Neal Gaiman
  • Charlaine Harris
  • More Salvatore


Thanks for having me!

Hi Tim and welcome to MobileRead. Like you, I got out of the reading habit but got bit by the bug again in my early 30's.
