Glad someone lists knitting! until my hands grew too twisted I always knit as an antidote to television–especially when visiting relatives who watched either football or wrestling….(ear plugs would have helped too but been too obvious) Fran

A contemplative soul that relaxes with a good cup of blood and a mystery to engage her senses while she knits patterns of interest into fascinating stories and poetry all for a dark lover. Just had to write this one with humor 😉

By the way – it was terribly hard to select five books. I did try to make sure they were all different genres; my collection is rather overwhelmingly fantasy and mystery books.

What an extraordinary list – not that it comes as a surprise! Have you come across, ‘The Zen Knitting Guide for Vampires’ – it’s a cult poem written specially to help insomniac cats get off to sleep.
How could anyone who writes like you not be an eclectic reader.
