I taught myself to read when I was four years old. I haven't stopped since then. For most of my life, I read fiction exclusively. In the past few years I have branched out considerably, although if I want to relax, I don't pick up "Founding Mothers" which I am currently reading, or "Democracy in America", also on the currently reading shelf.
Is it kismet that reading drives me to write? Or is that a natural extension of being a bibliomaniac? I've read so many books, that sometimes they begin to run together. I can't remember titles, or authors, which makes me sad when I remember something I've read but have no idea how to find it again.
This the answer to my problem. If I document each book, remembering it into cyberspace, in a place where I can alway find it, I'll never have to spend days trying to remember the exact title or an obscure author that I pulled off the library shelf. I can simply turn on the desktop, and be reminded.
Since I don't just read, maybe I'll find some other things to write about too, like how much I love my library card, or why Molasses Sugar cookies taste so much better while I'm reading a cozy Christmas book.
