Thanks Simone, I never really thought of writing that way. I figured if it keeps my interest as a writer then it will hold true for others too. This is good to think about.
Well summarised Simone- like how you’ve demonstrated what impact your personal preferences have on how & when you read. A very interesting article- saving for later 😌
I completely agree with you never throw out anything maxim. I find it amazing how many of my discarded edits can inspire another story or article sometimes months or years after they were consigned to the archive file. I also agree with what you say about reading. I think you need to be 'in the mood' to read certain books. My example is Robert Radcliffe's Under An English Heaven. I bought it second-hand, read the first ten pages and put it to one side as it did not grab me. Years later I picked it up and read it cover to cover and found it totally engrossing.
