Getting Started

After more than once being told that I should share my modest wit and wisdom with the world I'm finally getting around to it. I have my doubts that anyone other my mother, sister, and Kristin will read this but c'est la vie. What you should know about me is that I am a 20 year old male college student from Springfield, Ohio. Other details will no doubt be addressed as we get into things although I suspect that my readers will all already know me. I chose the name afictionado for my blog because so much of my life is lived through fiction including not just literature, but movies, television, theatre, video games and other media. Since I find the idea of coming up with topics to write about daunting, I have decided that I will present, for your reading pleasure, 100 entries about the 100 works of fiction I've deemed the greatest in a list I made a year ago and have been constantly updating since. I ranked them not only on their quality but also on the amount of influence they have had on my life. The list is not perfect, nor is it set in stone but I've done my best to make it as accurate as possible. For each entry, I plan on introducing the work, explaining why I love it, how it affected my life and perhaps a fun anecdote associated with it. I apologize in advance for any grammatical or spelling errors I may make, I love language but I don't always use it well. So without further ado let's get on with work 100.
