35559 Greetings Dragons!
It is wonderful to meet all of you. I started off by sending each of you a friend request. (or answering yours)

I am M. I live in Vancouver BC and am the happy mum of 2 fur babies of the meowing kind. A complete book nut, I spend most of my free time reading. I work at a local book store so I always have something new on my shelf. My favorite genres are sci-fi, fantasy, and historical fiction.

This is my first time being a co-captain. I am in the pacific time zone and usually near a computer. Looking forward to this challenge with all of you.
