Seth J. Bookey's Web Index

THE HORRIFIC KILLING of Matthew Shepard has gripped the nation, and for the first time I can ever recall, I cannot ever remember being this angry at a "news event." Consequently, I wrote an open letter to my friends and family, some of whom did not know, or rather, I had not told, I was gay until this moment. Click here to read my letter, The Scarecrow Planted in My Heart: Faith and Optimism and the Death of Matthew Shepard.

Complete Fiction. I have been on a fiction writing spree. If this interests you in the slightest, write to me at sethbook@panix.com for the URLs

I had established homepages on Geocities before I realized that Panix would give its users some space as well. For a five-year-old photo that represents me fairly well, click here now. Here is a hyperlinked index to my other homepages:

• I'll Be the Judge of That! My Website for Movie, Book, and Restaurant Reviews.
• Seth J. Bookey's Family History Website.
• Remembering Drobnin: An Electronic Yizkhor Book for My Grandfather's Birthplace.
• My articles on family history at Bayside Queens.

I also have a number of friends with homepages. They include:

• There is a new site devoted to my pseudo-plemeneck (nephew), Rudi Weinberg. He is quite cute and doesn't have that "Byzantine Baby Christ" look so many babies often have. Check in and see his progress.
• Tony has his Project Alphistia up and running.
• My movie pals Laura and Michele are part of the Book Grrrrls and Larua has just posted their Website. Laura also beat me to using frames. She's quite a gal.
• Josef is one of the editors of Precis.
• Dan has a baseball-oriented site at the 7th Inning Stretch.
• Up in Canada, my cousin, who goes by "Garf," is online.
• Over in Wales, there is Roj's Place.
• Dave up in Kelty, Scotland, has STEGO Training and Development online.
• Mike, who is also gay, jewish, liberal, and a Mac user, but living in Kansas, has Turn Left, the Home of Liberalism on the Web. He does a much better job of collecting this information, and has the needed energy that I am sure I do not have. TurnOUT! is a parallel site within the site with gay-related issues which is also quite admirable.
