I'm reading Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson right now, and really enjoying it. I play Second Life, and it is fun seeing the parallels between The Street and the Grid. Before that, I read Burning Chrome by William Gibson. Never before have I been brought to tears by a science fiction story. I need to read Neuromancer, but a friend recently sent me the Millennium trilogy by Stieg Larsson, and then there is my college reading list.. sigh!

What was the most interesting place you've traveled to?
In real life or in my head? China Mieville took me to New Crobuzon, that was interesting. I was homesick for Waterdeep for years, still am occasionally. But real life interesting? Probably some place in Second Life.

What's the origin of your name?
Calamity Kessel is my Second Life avatar's name. I picked it because I intended to roam SL as a kind of Space Pirate. I got distracted several times over.
