Let’s meet the vivacious Pabkins!

Greetings and Salutations fellow book lovers! - Rie has asked me to introduce myself. My name is Tabitha but my lovely sister Rinni calls me Pabkins - so I tend to use that handle on most areas of the net I frequent.
Rie asked me to pitch in from time to time here on Mission to Read. I'm very new to the blogging scene - and I have a relatively new blog of my own called Pabkins' Attention Deficit Crafting. Crafting, because that's what I spend the bulk of my time doing when I'm not reading, watching anime and loving my wonderful husband. Of course my devil queen of a cat thinks she's married to him. That trollup! If you're interested in seeing any of it feel free to pop on over - I keep my sister chained in the sweat shop making me all sorts of creatures and creations that we also sell online at Rinni's Playground on Etsy.com.
Here's a little cartoony self portrait mixed media painting I recently finished and I'm just about done making a couple of creepy dolls.
Now, back to the books - I have quite the book buying addiction - I collect them like little old men collect postage stamps or kids collect action figures and video games - even though I have oozing shelves stuffed with books that I haven't even read yet. I just can't stop myself from buying more.
Plus there is nothing quite like the smell of a room full of the printed word! I know the e-readers are a big craze right now but I still prefer a real book in my hands over an e-reader any day. *flips the pages of a book and sniffs - ah yes* Yeah, I'm a bit creepy? I'm scatter brained, prone to outbursts and oh yes, I'm a klutz beyond belief, quite literally a walking hazard zone.
I like reading various different genres, from thriller, fantasy, horror, comedy/satire, paranormal, urban fantasy to graphic novels, high fantasy and science fiction, childrens, young adult and even the romance. Lets not forget the naughty stuff from time to time too *evil laughter*!
Hopefully, I haven't bored all of you to death and made your eyes bleed. If I have - well - neener neener!

*Sniff. Glances around to make sure no one's looking* Yeah, nothing smells better than a book. I love creepy dolls, if only to scare children with...
ReplyDeleteAnyway, welcome! I'm looking forward for your posts.
Yay, nice to see you here! :)
ReplyDeleteNice to meet you! I also love the smell of words in my house. Nothing compares! (perhaps, though the smell of baking cookies? okay that's a close second!)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh - cookies - I need them. Yes - those hold a very close place in my heart as well. That would be wonderful - imagine sitting in an old bookstore with a batch of fresh baked cookies. = heaven
ReplyDeleteThanks sorry for the late reply! also love being welcomed to the fold!
ReplyDeleteNinja! You been stealing my books? So many have been coming up missing lately *chuckles* Thanks for the welcome - sorry for the very late reply. You'll love my creepy doll I'm almost done with. Of course they are wonderful at creeping people out. A friend of mine says my collection is going to come alive and kill me. I might give her one for xmas just to creep her out. Who could reject a handmade with vooodoo...errr I mean love in it!??
ReplyDeleteBook stealing is the name of my game. :)
ReplyDeleteI can totally respect a person who can admit they delve into the creepy side.
So funny. That would be a great present. I think it's the eyes that creep me out the most.
