Reading and Writing

Well, I am back. Finally. Took a little break there, as you can see. But it is time to resume my blogs. This brings up the topic, however, of reading versus writing. I love to read. And honestly, I love to write too. But only when it is fun. My resolution was initially just to read the 100 books for fun. And I love writing to posts too. However, cramming the posts in between the more demanding requirements of writing things for school, it got to the point where writing the posts was no longer a fun task, but more of a chore to add in around all of the other things. And let me tell you, there is no better place than grad school if you want to feel like your writing is no good. And as I said in the beginning, I would only do this project as long as it was still fun. So I decided it was time for a break.

Well, a break from writing at least. I still enjoyed the reading and I still kept up with it as much as possible. I even still kept taking notes for posts, so now that I am ready to resume writing, I have quite a few posts to give you! And with summer break only two weeks away....Finally. Although I am still decidedly behind schedule to meet my goal, I think this is the best way to have a blog like this. No one wants to read stuffy forced book reviews, right??

Anyway, the leave of absence is over and look for several new posts in quick succession. I read some great books during those silent weeks! For the first, a small tribute to Monty Python...

Keep reading! (Even when you don't feel like writing...)
