I'm always conscious of the food characters eat - fucking Harry Potter drove me crazy.

I keep thinking about reading Eragon as there is a copy at my local op-shop, but I watched the first half-hour or so of the movie, which was terrible (but I know it was condemned for being an insult to the book - so I remain undecided).

I'm reading <http://www.amazon.com/five-twelfths-heaven-melissa-scott/dp/0671559524>Five Twelfths of Heaven at the moment, which I quite like.

And yeah, write a novel! :)
