It's hard to put down (love it). Perhaps psychology with philosophy, gender studies and art as another medium for expressing it all might be interesting courses for your post-graduate studies (I can imagine you teaching some of them) should you decide to return to school. Your writing style is excellent (unlike my own often rambling and sometimes pretentious verbosity. Sometimes I wonder whether some chess players retreat into the world of 64 squares rather than deal with their own emotions and reality. I seem to recall reading an anecdote about Nimzovich (sp?) had some emotional issues after a loss, and the first comment by Carlo causes me to think someone could stand to do some assisted introspective cogitation with a therapist to help discern whether they might have an inferiority complex or suppressed resentments. Non-sequiturs aside, I think your literary skills are superb. :-) Received “Chess Bitch” from USCF Sales today via UPS and just started reading it. It’s hard to put down (love it).

I particularly like the combination of insightful analysis along with the interesting and enlightening real life context that you provide in your writing. It creates interest for wood-pushers like me. Your review reminded me how the nature of streams of logic we apply via spatial relationships vary from the mind numbing speed of computers which calculate seeming gazillions of possible variations. It must be interesting making New Year's resolutions and birthday wishes so close together. Do they ever intermingle? Best of luck in your new year.. hope your birthday was a happy one.. Are autographed hardcover versions of your book "Chess Bitch obtainable (sorry I haven't read it yet). Chuck Jaeger, wood-pusher (Life 1475) Love reading you.

By the way, I've discovered a new vodka that trumps Grey Goose; Imperia from St Petersburg. Try it on NYE. I like your writing and your blog as it gives me a window into a lifestyle that I envy.
