Ooh, that sounds like fun.
Do we get to see the work you might be contributing?

Yeah, but I need to find time to make it first. :D At the very least, me and some friends want to try some knitbombing
on the building.

Dude. That is so ridiculously, impractically awesome.

Also, I've clearly been playing entirely too much Mass Effect 3, as my mind went "hmm, knitbombers, we could use those for the war effort- wait, what?"...

Hmm, you could always knitbomb areas of a battlefield for blankets when it gets cold...

That sounds badass! I met Bryan Lee O'Malley and he is a really cool.

Yeah, it was fantastic. Me and my friends went to his comics workshop, us and about twenty others created a collaboration comic. I'll post pics of that and the knitbombing when I get a hold of them.

Just finished the most recent Temeraire novel by Naomi Novik, Crucible of Gold, and it was pretty good, but the series has a bit too much "and then they travel to this part of the world"

Also finished Neal Stephenson's Reamde, which was absolutely amazing.

I'm reading the Song of Ice and Fire books at the moment. Currently nearing the end of book three.

The Coast of Utopia - Tom Stoppard

A Streetcar Named Desire - Tennessee Williams
Just read This Is Not A Game - Walter Jon WIlliams. Similar concepts to Cory Doctorow's FTW and Neal Stephenson's Reamde but it was much shorter, less in-depth, and overall I felt it lacked the intense action that the other two books had.

Odd Thomas - Dean Koontz

And textbooks. So many textbooks. *shudder*

Yeah they're monsters.

Slowly motoring through the Complete works of Sherlock Holmes. Just begun Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes.
There's a group at my uni where they watch episodes of Sherlock on Fridays. It is beautiful.

Don't worry about it, I'm sure you're not the only one. They take awhile if you don't get all obsessive about it like I did. :$

It took me awhile to get really involved in the story, but by the end I quite like it.

I'm reading "The Golems Eye" ... again.
Nothing wrong with that. :D

The Adventures of Dr. McNinja: Night Powers - Christopher Hastings (with an introduction by Kate Beaton, and a bonus story written by some other guys that features a hilarious heavily fictionalized version of Canada).

It's epic.


Also, I just found this site: http://www.humblebundle.com/ Basically you can get 8 ebooks, pay whatever price you want, and decide how much goes to charity, how much to the authors, and how much to support the site. It's got Neil Gaiman and Cory Doctorow among others, it looks pretty cool.
