About me & Contact Marcia

Hello and welcome to The Printed Page,

This is my personal book blog where I write about and discuss everything books in my world. The Printed Page is dedicated almost solely to books and the book world. Occasionally I include posts about the feline lords and ladies of the Larsen manor and our annual winter vacations. My name is Marcia. Please use this form for general inquires or correspondence.

A bit about me

I’ve been passionate about reading since a very young age. I feel like I’m missing a piece of myself if I don’t have my Kindle or a book nearby. I never leave the house without something to read. I enjoy sharing my love of books with others. Generally I find myself reading adult popular fiction, thrillers/suspense/mystery/horror, historical fiction, some non-fiction along with travelogues and memoirs.

40 has come and gone and 50 is on the horizon. I’ve been married a number years and longer than anyone expected. I’m the humble servant to several feline lords and ladies of the Larsen manor. Originally from Washington state (Seattle area) I relocated to Idaho in 1996. I’m college educated but let’s call it more of a life education than a book education. I enjoy listening to country and classical music. Most times you will find the TV on a sports channel and muted so that I can read yet keep an eye on the action.

Authors & Publishers:

I occasionally accept ARCs and review books. So that I don’t mislead you you will not find full blown books reviews here at The Printed Page. I’m not a writer nor do I read books to dissect them for review. I read purely for pleasure and entertainment. I’m very concise keeping it simple and to the point – did I like it and would I read more from the author. Check out my Reading Journal.

Starting in 2010 I’m limiting the number of books I accept and limiting books to those in the thriller/suspense/mystery/horror and historical fiction genres. I hope you will take a moment to look at my blog.

If you don’t receive an answer to your inquiry it simply means that my reading/review schedule is full. If you’re still interested please contact me by filling out the requested information below.

If you’re comfortable doing so you can email me a pdf file that I can download to my Amazon Kindle. This will save you shipping costs and allow you to offer the print edition to another book blogger.
