Welcome to Ravenmoon!

This website, for the moment, primarily houses reviews (books, movies, etc., both academic and not) and my Fountain Pen listings, reviews, and comentary.

To the left are links to my fountain pen related pages, the review blog I keep here, and an assortment of things I find either interesting, or useful to keep handy. To the right you will see a random selection of books as cataloged on my LibraryThing. LT is a great site for creating, cataloging of monitoring a library. Click the book list to visit my Library.

I keep a personal 'blog' on LiveJournal, though I have recently made parts of that journal accesible to friends only, for privacy reasons. Public entries there consist mostly of my political commentary, some reviews and a few other odds and ends. Please note: my commentary, like my own views, tend overwhelmingly toward the liberal, secular left; just so you know. I also keep an academic writing journal, Codex Mithica. I keep all my actual academic work there, so, as you might imagine, I keep most of it locked to the public.

Either of these can be followed by anyone, but if you want to read protected ('friends-locked') entries, you will need to have a LiveJournal account and be added by me as a friend. Accounts are free, and you can sign up HERE. If you already have an account, (or decide to get one) please comment at either journal, let me know who you are, and if I know you, I'll add you. (Please note that if I don't know you, I may not add you right away. I hope you will understand.)

Meanwhile, welcome, and enjoy what's here!
