NAME: Kat

AGE: 36

INTERESTS & HOBBIES (and a few extra details): I love to read and collect books; I'm the epitome of "bookishness". Mainly: contemporary fiction, poetry, essays, nature/science writing (especially women's relationships with the environment), memoirs (especially those about mental illness and recovery), some graphic novels (Adrian Tomine, Alison Bechdel, Lynda Barry), la la la. I'm on Goodreads (www.goodreads.com/ghostwire) I like to take long walks, I watch silly television shows, I have a crazy cat that I adore, I"m a night owl, I like riding my bike, I'm a homebody, I'm extremely shy/introverted, I deal with mental health issues, I'm an INFJ, I'm a MSTie, music keeps me sane (my first love is classical, but I also love alt country (just got hooked), dream pop (Cocteau Twins!), post rock, americana, gothic americana (Woven Hand!), NEKO CASE, Veda Hille, PJ Harvey, Kristin Hersh, Kaki King), I could go on and on, but for the sake of brevity (too late, oops) I'll stop there. (www.last.fm/user/skymotel)

LOOKING FOR: Kind souls, fellow dreamers, kindred spirits.

ANYTHING ELSE?: I'll be up front: I'm gay and I struggle with mental illness. If either things make you cringe, we probably won't get along. Oh, and I'm a dork. Big time.

Adding you if that's cool! I'm Kath, also 36, also queer (so very, very bi), also a lover of books although lately it's really hard to find the mental energy to read. I do have a Goodreads account though: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/24845136-kath

I was an avowed cat person too until I got my little hairless dog 6 years ago... now I only have eyes for pooches. Currently obsessing over the new Anne of Green Gables series and that's ramping up my dorkiness but also leading me to actually blog here for the first time in a while, so I'm looking for new friends while I'm at it :)
