Okay, so "Misti Wolanski" isn't my actual name, but it's my penname, and serves as an Internet name with "Carradee."

School, work, illness, and web design (see my homepage) have been taking up my time, lately, though I certainly intend to return here when I can.

If you update a review after I've rated it, please e-mail me a link if you'd like me to update my rating, please. Otherwise, how will I know that you've updated?

Creationist, sabbatarian, and reformed presbyterian (PCA), I'm a working college student and have been a freelance writer since Christmas '05, writing website articles for pay. A hyperactive imagination means I have half a dozen novels, and a dozen short stories, and a few screenplays and novelettes in various stages of completion, but they are working towards completion. (The one published short story wasn't for pay.)

If I ever edit your grammar, please don't take it as an insult; it's an extension of my sense of humor. There's a reason my friend calls me a "grammar lexicon given flesh." I like grammar. And copyediting. [smiles dreamily]

At risk of sounding silly, I love the drop down menus! Thank you, greatpilgrim, for linking to this very helpful tutorial on on your bio page!

Feel free to critique my reviews; I don't mind and rather like it, actually. I'll be most obliged to you. Also, if you sign up for e-mail alerts to my reviews or put me in your Web of Trust and change your mind, go ahead and remove me without guiltily worrying what I'll think. To make it easier for you, here's what I'll think: "Oh, xxxx isn't on that list anymore. Hm. I wonder if it's—" then I'll exercise my imagination to come up with a list of potential reasons why you might've done so. Example reason: "I wonder if they realized how short a time I've been here and decided to be cautious."

Thank you for bothering to read this silly newbie's bio. It warms her heart—and, if she's had enough sugar, makes her bounce rather like the child her mother claims she never was.

About the Drop Menus

The drop menus below have certain divisions:

• Book Reviews - Star Wars not included
• Star Wars Reviews - for everything SW that I review
• Music Reviews - will be mostly gothic or Christian artists
• Other Reviews - for those random reviews I've done that are pretty much loners at the moment
• Express Reviews - currently numbered at one, for those minireviews I do

Book reviews will probably be my most prolific, and of those Star Wars will probably be my most prolific series. (I own over 60 SW books myself.) So, that's why I've separated Star Wars. Other separations will follow as I branch out more.

Though of course I can't promise anything, since everything depends on the LORD's will, I will attempt to put new reviews in these menus immediately after I post them.
