rynlingBeing both a literature professor and someone who has trouble reading from a screen, I actually have a lot of books myself. Getting unsolicited review copies doesn't help, and people insist on giving me books as presents. I do my best to donate and give away (and sometimes just throw away) books on a weekly basis, but still. There are a lot of books I want to keep, and they add up.
On my creative bio, I say that I live "at the center of a maze of bookshelves," and this is very literal. I don't consider myself to be a hoarder, I just live in a small apartment and therefore need to organize the space creatively by using bookshelves to form interior walls. Aside from the bookshelf maze in the living room, my apartment is very clean and minimalist.
Still, if I drop dead one day, I hope my books creep out whoever comes after me.
