So I'm trying to cut back, and then I read this entry and find descriptions of two books (yeah, short ones, but still...) by writers whose work I have not read before. Two books that sound like fun. If I read them and enjoy them, I'll start poking around looking for their other books, and so much for cutting back.

Ever notice that sometimes if you read a book blog you're kinda like an almost-but-not-quite-recovering alcoholic hanging out in a bar?

This year I've made the 'decision' (because I hate the idea of resolutions), that I'm going to devote more time to creating art, to experimenting, and exploring. The unfortunate consequence is that, with responsibilities and a day-job, there's only so many hours in the day. To do more of anything, means to do less of something else. My reading has taken the brunt of this change of pace. These kind of short reads might be just the thing I didn't know I needed.
