Dogeared: Indianapolis, IN --at Ribfest-- September 1, 2007

Reading Moonrise (Warriors: The New Prophecy, Book 2), by Erin Hunter.

She likes the book because it gives detail and is interesting. Warriors is one of her favorite series. She likes fantasy and adventure books. Other series she likes are Harry Potter, Great Illustrated Classics, Tales of Narnia, and the Left Behind series.

Her favorite book—The Bible.

If she were to write her own book it would be fiction and fantasy with adventure and mystery.

What she likes about Indianapolis? It’s easy to make friends here.

She shares her books with her friends.

About Dogeared

The Rocky Mountains, Statue of Liberty, amber waves of grain, sprinklers on the grass, strip malls and chain stores may define our country's physical landscape, but it's the media we consume that defines who we are as people.

It's the magazines, newspapers, movies, video games, music and TV shows that fill our minds like the grade school health class motto--"you are what you eat."

While it's more likely that what comes across our iPods and TV sets defines us as a country, it's the books we read that interest me most--hand-held how-to, history, fantasy, memoir, magna comics... that go anywhere and everywhere. A substitute brain that lasts for over a hundred pages and turns the reader's mind into the author's thoughts.

In September of 2006 I began interviewing people reading books, on public transportation, in coffee shops and parks in San Francisco, where I've lived for the past five years. This project has been extremely satisfying. I have made new friends, broadened my horizons, and, when I sit down at my computer to work on my novel, I feel as though writing is a worthwhile. People love to read.

I will post on this blog during a six week period, from mid July through the end of August, and attempt to encompass a diverse sample of our country. Please write me at sonya.worthy@gmail.com if you have advice or suggestions, if I’ve made a mistake or you have something to add. Also, please comment if you have something to share with other readers. Comments are set up so that you don't need to log in or create an account--it's easy.
