Om mig I am virgoan librarian working in a Public Library in inner city Sydney, NSW. As well as books and reading I like to spent time in my garden and in the bush and engage in a variety of creative/constructive activities. I rarely pass up an opportunity to share a meal or a coffee with friends.

Om mit bibliotek I enjoy collecting and reading fiction and non-fiction books written by African Writers,also a wide variety of other writing including literary fiction,crime,travel, ancient history, archaeology, especially by Australasian, British, contemporary Indian, Icelandic, West indian, Canadian and some US writers especially women, in a variety of genres.

There was a time when I had read all the books I owned, now I've a lot of catching up to do as I regularly succumb to temptation and read a lot from the library where I work.

Hi Carolyn. It's been a while since I looked at Library thing, or have written to you.

I don't know if you're still interested in books about Cornwall, but I've just come across Patrick Gale, who lives near Lands End. His latest book "Notes on an Exhibition" is a real treat. It was a nostalgic read for me as he mentions places in Penzance that I know well. He has a website http://www.galewarning.org/index/flash.h... which lists all his books, his appearances at Festivals etc. and a bit about his life.

Hope all is well in your life.

Hi Carolyn,
Thanks for becoming a friend. And I hope you enjoy the books!
All the best,
Lisa
Have a look at this http://www.cornwalltoday.co.uk/Cornwall/... which lists authors, poets etc. who write fiction and non-fiction set in Cornwall. The Winston Graham ones about Poldark were made into a BBC TV series in the 70s, precipitating a great exodus from cities to try and live the good life in Cornwall.

Mary Wesley, who didn't start writing until her late 60s, wrote frothy, amusing, zip-through novels, many of which were set in Cornwall, e.g. The Camomile Lawn.
You are a long way from Cornwall to be founding a group about it?! Was this home or just a place you've found in writings?
