I started Name of the Wind and then fell out of it. I'll probably pick it back up again soon. I just like Pat as a person so dang much.

It's encouraging to see that someone you respect today is someone you would have rolled your eyes at a few years (or decades) ago. It reminds you that perseverence pays off and that even the best of us sucked at one time or another.

I actually pulled it and another book off the shelf last night (The Fires of Heaven) intending to begin one of them again. I ended up writing instead, so I guess it worked out.
