BOOKISH-ANGEL'S "AROUND A BIG WORLD WITH A SMALL BLADDER" QUEST TO PERSONALLY RELEASE A BOOK ON EVERY CONTINENT (OR A CONTINENT'S ISLAND) BY MY 50TH BIRTHDAY, WAS COMPLETED ON MARCH 13, 2009. THANK YOU, BOOKCROSSERS, FOR THE BOOKS AND
GOOD WISHES!
NORTH AMERICA: USA. I have released many books in my mother country.
EUROPE: Amsterdam, Netherlands. September 23, 2006. Released "Rainy Lake" by Mary Francois Rockcastle at Mulligan's Irish Music Bar, Amstel 100.
ANTARCTICA: Mainland. Paradise Harbor Chilean Base. January 21, 2007. Released "Scott of the Antarctic" by Elspeth Huxley and "Mary, Mary" by James Patterson to a Chilean base employee who was very excited about the Bookcrossing idea.
SOUTH AMERICA: Ushuaia, Tierro del Fuego, Argentina. January 24, 2007. Released Lonely Planet's "Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay" on the snack food rack at the "Telecom" internet/telephone store center at the end of the pier.
AFRICA: Johannesburg, South Africa. June 10, 2008. Released Mark Bixler's "The Lost Boys of Sudan" to the woman sitting behind me on my arriving flight to South Africa. Also on 6/10/08, I left Lauren Haney's "A Curse of Silence" at Safari Club Bed and Breakfast in Johannesburg. 6/14/08: Released "Icebound: A Doctor's Incredible Battle for Survival at the South Pole" by Jerri Nielsen in Dakar, Senegal to a young woman in the row ahead of me on South African Airways flight #207 from Johannesburg.
AUSTRALIA: Sydney, Australia: February 21, 2009. Released "A Little Spoonful of Chicken Soup for the Soul - 2nd Helping" by Jack Canfield, et.al, "Welcome to My Planet, Where English is Sometimes Spoken" by Shannon Olson and "Tale of the Unknown Island" by Jose Saramago at The Sheraton Four Points Hotel at Darling Harbor.
Melbourne, Australia: February 24, 2009. Released "Katwalk" by Karen Kijewski in the Diamond Princess cruise ship's library while docked.
Exmouth, Australia: March 4, 2009. Relased "The Perfect Storm" by Sebastian Junger in the Diamond Princess cruise ship's library while docked in Exmouth.
ASIA: March 13, 2009: Released "La Maravilla" by Alfredo Vea and "The Appeal" by John Grisham at the Diamond Princess tender boat waiting area at Sihanoukville, Cambodia.
I am a voracious reader with the exceptions of most Chick Lit, Romance, Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror. I am a bloodlust Scrabble player.
I am a citizen of the USA interested in all other cultures, pro-LGBTQ, BLM, and animal-rights. I falteringly follow a mostly Buddhist path. My mottos are "Work a little, travel a lot" and "You can't have everything - where would you put it?"
I enjoy classic, international, and documentary film.
My reading passions are China's Cultural Revolution, brain science, green/healthful living, noetic science, Buddhism, and travel writing
particularly about Asia, Africa, The Caribbean, Australia and Antarctica. I also like the occasional first-person cozy mystery than can't be solved in the first 20 pages.
