Bookshelf tour, July 2025

The house has bookshelves everywhere, but the one in my office is kind of like the RAM to their SSD, the stuff I want to have close at hand for reference or as my next entertainment.

The top shelf holds all of my books, including the ones to which I have contributed over the years (that would be the Wild Cards novels, the Love Death + Robots anthology, and the Unidentified Funny Objects volume.)

The middle shelf is my current TBR pile, plus a few quick reference books and stuff I want to read again.

The bottom shelf is for books from writer friends as well as some signed copies.

(There’s another shelf below that for large-format books and my Holy Scripture–the Calvin & Hobbes and Far Side compendiums. And the top shelf is filled with the positively unwise amount of A5-sized notebooks I stocked up on just in case the manufacturer suddenly stops producing them.)
