Early report on 2007 reading

My reading in 2007 began on January 1 with:

Most of the contents of the January 2007 Smithsonian magazine.

An initial foray into The New Yorker’s fiction issue. The New Yorker is rapidly becoming my favorite magazine.

I started Kenny Moore’s biography of Oregon track coach Bill Bowerman. I used to subscribe to Sports Illustrated just to read Moore, who is both a runner and writer, but better at both than I.

I also started Neil Gaiman’s Fragile Things, a collection of short stories, poetry and other oddities from Gaiman.

I continued on the 2nd with Moore, Gaiman and The New Yorker.
