Reader’s Block

What’s the longest you’ve ever gone without reading a book (since learning how to read, of course)? Which book was it that helped break the dry spell? Todays prompt is one of two of my daily passions. It has been just over a year that I began reading to the point that I now consider myself…

EBook’s and the nostalgia for a book

Todays prompt is one of two of my daily passions. It has been just over a year that I began reading to the point that I now consider myself a “Book Nerd”. I keep at least five to eight books, in my book bag to read during the day. Once I discovered audible books, I greatly increased my book consumption to 3-4 a month as I walk 3-4 miles a day. I read books like I use to watch television with the remote in my hand, changing channels constantly.

My most recent dry spell was for one week in August and again in September when I focused more on establishing my blogs on several different sites. When I’m writing a short story or writing something for one my blogs, I stress myself about how much reading I could be accomplishing. I’m very passionate about my reading and writing, I just need more time in a twenty-four hour day to give equal time to both.

    My wife loves to read, as does my mum. My mum is going to retire in perhaps another decade, so I know reading will take up an even greater portion of her life.

    What do you find yourself reading lately? Is it fiction, nonfiction or both?

      I have for some reason lately, been reading biographies. I have read, four so far and I have three more I want to finish before the end of the month. I love my Sci-Fi, especially, Star Trek paperback novels. I really don’t see those as challenging reading, as I can read those within a day. Earlier this year, I focused a lot of research and reading on the American Civil War and Slavery.

    I read all the time. The most I go without reading is a day or two at the most. This year, I challenged myself to read 80 books. I just finished book number 73 and am 20% through #74. I won’t read as much during November because I participate in NaNoWriMo every year so I’ll be busy writing then but I’ve got a bit of a lead so I should reach my 80 book goal by Dec. 31.

      Hey Corina, I to will be participating in the NaNoWriMo set for next month. I, like you am trying to get through another three books before the end of the month so I can focus on NaNoWriMo event. I set my Goodreads challenge at 35, and I’m at 23, so I have a shot at completion. Good luck in next months event.
