June and July have been a bit lean on the reading front. It's not that I haven't been reading, I haven't been reading fiction. My day job requires forty "points" of professional development (CPD) across the year in different categories and at a quarter of a point for 15 minutes of reading, that's 10 hours of reading to make the minimum 10 points in that category. Entirely do-able if I read journals or articles for 15 minutes a week throughout the year.
But of course, I never do that. Why would I when there's so much great fiction to read. So I find as the CPD year finishes (September) I spend a lot of my time "stacking" activities. No work reading on our annual holiday means double the reading rate during the month before. When I go to RWA conference in August (and I'll be there with bells on this year), there's double reading to be done in July. And I really want to get September's reading done before I go as well, because there's bound to be plenty of great fiction making the flight back home with me when I return. Comments are closed.
