Reading and Writing

I used to read whatever I felt like. Didn't bother what genre it was or whether it was 'my' kind of book. I just read.

Then I became a writer and, unfortunately, my reading changed. It became focused. I read what I write more than other genres.

I'm not sure why this change came about and I'm not sure I like it. Reading should be a restful, recharging thing, not a research endeavor.

I think I'll make a focused effort to once again not put a focused effort into what I read.
