I have a number things to read every day, but books are still my first love.
Here's what I'm focused (more or less) on at the moment:
Stargazer by Miguel Conner, a novel about a vampire with a conscience living in a post-apocalyptic world. This is my favorite novel at the moment.
A Flickering Reality by F. David Peat, an exploration of -- well, as the subtitle says, "Cinema and the nature of reality" -- it mentions Philip K. Dick. This book interests me because I have studied film and taught several film classes.
The Arranger by L.J. Sellers, a detective / thriller novel written in journalistic style, fast-paced and exciting.
Reviews will eventually appear on this blog.
What are YOU reading? Any recommendations?

It's a Philip K. Dick World! “Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away.” —Philip K. Dick Government intrusion into our personal lives is increasing, the economy is shot and the media focus on hate and violence. Philip K. Dick's fifth and last wife, Tessa Dick, talks about her husband. I have my own books and stories, as well.

Neil Diamond still going strong - and still inspiring
`
When I was a teenager and feeling worthless and hopeless, Neil Diamond's music saved what little sanity I had left. This particular song was playing on the radio several times a day. "I am, I said"
And at age 70, he is still going strong with that wonderful voice and his marvelous songs.
I remember being at school and doing my work while the radio played this and other Neil Diamond songs.
The spiritual quality of his music still touches my heart and my soul.
