I'm a noob and when I say noob I mean noob noob, as in I just discovered the amazing world of OSC 1 1/2 weeks ago. Since then I finished Ender's Game in 2 days (the only book I finished this fast was 1984) and now am more than half way through Ender's Shadow. I'm on a quest to finish as many of his books as I can before the new semester starts up and I don't have as much leisure reading time. Oh graduate school, how I loath you sometimes.

You’d think I’d get into OSC during my time at the BYU since I had a lot of friends into him. But better late then never, eh?

Anyway, just wanted to say hi and that I am now a devoted fan planning to pick up every book and go to every signing I possibly can. [Smile]

You need to stop playing video games for one year and read books instead.

I bet it's StarCraft....

lol...is that for me? Do I play a lot of video games? Did my mom get on here? [No No]

In the past year I think I've played video games 1/10 as much as I've read.
But thanks for the advice... and whats starcraft?

BTW I think I figured out why you think I dont read much. When I said "1984" I was saying the BOOK 1984 by George Orwell (its a small little indie title you may not have heard of). Not that I havent read a book SINCE 1984.
Just thought I'd clairify. Carry on. [Smile]
