I think reading â€” for myself, for fun â€” will have to be one of my top New Year’s resolutions.

Yet another reason I cut NaNo short. I got in this for the love of stories, and I realized I hadn’t enjoyed one in a long time, and simply didn’t have the time. So I made time.

You have to read to write.

I have realized that I cannot remember when I last read a complete book just for fun. Everything seems to be for work. Lack of time, really.

Then I found a quotation from an author named Susan Straight: “Reading is the passion that brought me to writing. Reading to me is crucial. I tell my students all the time, ‘If you’re not reading, who’s going to read you?’”

Still pondering this.
