Reading truths.........................................

Thirty-three thoughts on reading from Austin Kleon.  It is a pretty good list.  A few excerpts here:

2.  I will make an effort to carry a book with me at all times

4.  I will read whatever the hell I feel like. No guilty pleasures. 

11.  I will read with a pencil pen or highlighter. I will underline. I will dog ear. I will write in the margins.

14.  I will re-read favorite books the way I watch favorite movies and play favorite records over and over.

16.  I will take a deep breath and understand that it is IMPOSSIBLE to read everything.

24.  I will keep stacks of unread books at the ready.

26.  I will go to the library. I will go to the bookstore. I will get lost in the stacks.

33.  If I don’t feel like reading, I’ll go do something else. Maybe even — gasp! — watch TV.
