I've added a Genre History Timeline page as of 3-16-2011 (still under construction) and a Literary Timeline page as of 3-04-2011 (also still under construction) as a way to put classic works in perspective of their place of historical time and significance.
A page devoted figures and important events with genre-related works.

The St. Louis Library District chose Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 as 2006's book for "The Big Read".

This should be required reading for everyone on the planet. |

Two crappy essays I wrote for online publication. These are so old, and of such poor quality, I really should take them down. Don't say you haven't been warned.
