Georgina this is a really useful blog with some great advice. I allocate specific times of the day to read books. Unfortunately my flat isn’t big enough to hold large volumes of paper books, so 95% of my purchases are e-books. I therefore have to get a notebook and pen to write the notes that I would otherwise write in the margins of the paper books. These notes are extremely useful for the reviews which I post on Amazon. I sometimes got to bed at 8pm and read, not for as long as 2 hours I have to confess, and my rate of unfinished books is fortunately low. I certainly found that RACELESS helped me to deal with the identity-based traumas that I have faced in the past, although they are fundamentally different to your own. So power to your elbow.
Glad you liked it David! And yes…allocating a block of time to read in my day is the only way I get it done. And I like the idea of making notes in a notepad!
My flat has quite a few red notebooks full of the notes that I make as I read my Kindle books; notes that on a traditional book would be written in pencil in the margins. They really are useful as raw material when I come to write the reviews on Amazon.
btw above is a link to my Amazon page which contains the books that I have self-published (5 to date).
