When Do You Read?
Apologies for being a day late. Had a wonderful time at the Association of Christian Writers' Day in Bath yesterday. I was too "buzzed out" to write much yesterday though I did write flash fiction and some notes for a blog post on a phone app while on the train!
I did, however, give myself plenty of time to read in bed last night. I indulged in magazines, books, and the Kindle. It was the perfect way to wind down after a busy but most enjoyable day.
I never feel as if the day has ended properly without my bedtime read. The only time I really get to read outside of that time is usually when I'm on holiday. Even on train trips I want to spend that time writing though it was good to see there were books in evidence on the train. Let nobody tell you the paperback is dead! It isn't!
I would love to find a way of being able to read more in the day but I just know I'd be too conscious of all the other things I should be doing to allow myself to enjoy that read properly. So maybe at the end of the day is the best time to read after all.
