WHAT A WRITER NEEDS

The most essential gift for a good writer is a built-in, shockproof shit detector. This is the writer’s radar and all great writers have had it. Ernest Hemingway

WRITE A NOVEL

Even Newt Gingrich wrote one. So can you.

READING CHAIR

Archie Bunker had his chair. Why shouldn't you have yours?!

EXPRESSO MAKERS

Cigarettes went out with those photos of existentialist novels; but espresso is still the book lovers companion; here are some espresso makers from $24.99 to 10 times that.

KOKOPELLI BOOKMARK

Makes you want to keep reading.

SPANISH/ENGLISH

I use this English/Spanish electronic dictionary all the time; I've tried quite a few. Believe me. This is the BEST in every way. It has a smart function whereby it finds your word before you type in all the letters; it has the best useful vocabulary; it has memory features; it operates on AAA batteries. The only thing it lacks is a speaker voice, but those are so dreadful, you are better off without the sound of a robot uttering either English or Spanish.

READING IS CUTE

Isn't it time to add some levity to your life? This Hummel figurine will lighten up your study or den, and maybe even your life. If Philip Roth is getting you down, this beautiful figurine will give you a much needed lift.

BOOK HUTCH

Not for the Allen wrench challanged; otherwise it's a great deal.

CLEAN READING!

For $10, you can be sure that what you and your children read is clean (without having to consult your local school board).

BOOKMARK AND AMULET

If you are at that age when you realize you can't save the world, at least you can take solace in reading about humankind's efforts to do so. This amulet held in the hand as you regard the great minds of civilization can help keep your magical thinking alive. Don't think of it as a mere bookmark but as a timeless artifact. This is a Beautiful Sterling Silver Pentacle Bookmark. It measures 3" tall x 7/8" wide. Item weighs about 8 grams and is crafted of genuine .925 sterling silver.

FOLDING BOOKCASE

Folding Bookcase Easy-Store Assembly-Free Espresso If you move as much as I do, and if you take your books with you, you will really like this item. It might not hold the complete works of Simenon (then again, it might: he wrote short novels), but think about the next you try to angle some bookcases into a U-haul.

FLUORESCENT BOOK LIGHT

Who would have ever thought technology would advance to the point that an electric fluorescent lamp could serve as a book light and be stylish, comfortable, eye-friendly, and compact? Not like the old days with those blinding ten foot rods in high school. This one might even relieve depression. Unless, of course, you are reading Cormac McCarthy.

BOOK & AUTHOR T-SHIRTS

BIBLIOPHILES Huge selection of shirts, caps, buttons, bookmarks, mugs for book lovers. A great way to advertise the value of reading. Have you ever seen a TV ad for a publishing company?

BEST BOOK LIGHT

The best and least expensive book light. That's what they say.
