A Trip Into the Inner Sanctum
When Gregory K suggested at the end of August that people take pictures of their To Be Read Piles and send them to him, I knew it was time to confront the beast in my office. So. In case you are curious. Here is where A Fuse #8 Production is written each and every day.
And here, behind the red chair, is a portion of the To Be Read shelving.
Now just those bottom shelves are the To Be Read portion. THESE shelves are the To Be Reviewed pile.
Needless to say, I don’t anticipate them getting done any time soon. Even better? The incredibly messy pile of books that I’d like to get to sooner rather than later.
