Slow down.
2018 was a frantic reading year. 142 posts vs my next highest year, 2012 with 89.
Short stories added to the post count because I believe they required individual consideration. But I felt rushed all year long mostly because I would borrow armloads of books from the library which all had to be returned within a short period of time.
I did not have the chance to relax into stories and books as I was always thinking about the next title.
In 2019 I will try to remove the time limit and concentrate on the books that I own. I have four bookshelves and a dozen boxes filled with work that is just waiting for me to pick up. I will blow the dust off these books and enjoy them without the urge to push through.
I mean to savour my reading.
