The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It's easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well! I will link to everyone who participates and leaves a link to their 13 things. Trackbacks, pings, comment links accepted!
8 tell me a story:
That is an awful lot of reading!
Enjoy your reading.
I'll be at work. No books for me. -sigh-
Some good choices there. Have you ever read Harlan Ellison? One of my favorite writers, mainly writing in the short form.
Happy TT.

Good luck with the read-a-thon! I'm participating again too. :-)
I'm one of the read-a-thon helpers and I've been visiting participants to make sure they don't forget it's this Saturday already. It's clear that you haven't, and it's great to see that you're excited about it :D Those are some great choices. I love Fragile Things, as well as everything I've read by Oates so far.
Cool list,good luck with the read-a-thon. Sorry I've been scarce lately, the desktop died, and it took me a while to get my laptop and get the internet set up.
Have a great weekend.
