The ways the author motivates themself read again, is by having a book-review newsletter to write by the end of each book. They are taking notes while they read, about any and every thing.
I read this part with a little bit of scorn. I thought to myself, I don’t do this. I pick up books because I want to read them. I enjoy reading them. And I do.
But also, I have a bookshelf page on my website, where I post reviews and track the books I read.
I have a similar reason for reading the many posts I read on Net News Wire as well - my micro posts. Everything I consume acts as a fodder for whatever I produce next.
I think that’s good.
