If you want to connect in Spokane, just ask. Most of my blogging now takes place at www.bikestylespokane.com. My personal blog at biketoworkbarb.blogspot.com is updated less frequently. Find me on Twitter: @BarbChamberlain (personal/professional), @WomenBikeBlogs (pretty much what you'd guess--a feed from a massive list I've been compiling, http://bit.ly/WomenBikeBlogs), @BikeStyleSpok (for my blog/business), @SpokaneBlogs (feed from Spokane blogs list I've compiled that's on my personal blog, http://bit.ly/SpokaneBlogs). |
| Interests | biking,yoga,social media,vegetarian cooking,public policy,urbanism,local economies,blogging, |
| Favorite movies | Too many to list and such variation in topic and quality you'd think I'm not a very discriminating movie viewer. You'd be right. |
| Favorite music | I don't pay as much attention to music as I used to so this is harder to answer than back in the day when it was always Billy Joel. |
| Favorite books | Too many to list. Every so often I have to reread James Q. Wilson's "The Moral Sense" or Jared Diamond's "Guns, Germs and Steel" because they are such sweeping works of scholarship. On the other hand, I really enjoyed the Sookie Stackhouse vampire novels. "The Time Traveller's Wife" made me cry. I love Barbara Kingsolver. I've never read "Ulysses" and probably never will. I majored in English. |
