As I try to start a new blog I find it necessary to explain a little about the old one, and especially why it died.
I was overly ambitious, I wanted to read 52 books in a year, a quest I started in March, and I also wanted to write a review of each book. Part one of my plan was doable, but the second part I found to be a challenge. It was a lot more work than I had imagined, and I simply got sick of it. It seemed pointless to me and became a chore.
Now you know you have a problem when a hobby becomes a chore, I figured I would either drop the entire project or stop writing about it. I think I made the right choice.
Now on to this blog; Why did I start anew when it didn't work last time?
Well I want to improve my writing skills, and someone wise and probably famous once said, that if you work really hard at something you get better at it.
Someone also said "Write what you know", well I know reading (and basic math, but I doubt you want to read about me adding columns of small numbers) so I write about reading.
If I should happen to experience something exiting when I am not in my reading chair, I will most likely share that too. Consider yourselves warned!
