when I first joined, I used the name Bagarap Empire. The other day I remembered you and tried to login but couldn't remember my password. So you sent my password to my friend's email address but she's not using it anymore so I couldn't get the password that way, either. So I decided to start again.
So now I'm seethwright, a character in one of my all-time fave books, Dimension of Miracles by Robert Sheckley. I lost my first copy of the book - loaned it to someone who disappeared with it - but recently was able to find another. If I can find yet another copy, I will release it. In the meantime, I want to release a beautiful book called Smith's Gazelle by Lionel Davidson. It is a truly moving story, delightful, painful, funny, rich. Everyone should read it. I just have to hunt for it because all my books are in boxes which fill a room in my house. Eventually the room will be a library, but meantime ..... But now I've found you guys again, and sorted myself out a bit, I'll get on to it. I have two copies but I'll have to keep one, because I have given it to a number of people to read and all have been subtley changed by it. One young man, returning after a few years with a friend to visit me, told his friend "I read my first book here." He had been in his mid-twenties at the time, and the book was Smith's Gazelle.
