Gail | 81 comments I read close to a book a day--but I'm kind of a binge reader, and I've been smacked in the head with a story that insists on being written (don't know yet if it's a book...), and it's not the book I'm contracted to write, so I'm writing during my usual reading time. Sigh. Still did get one book read this weekend, and made progress on another...

Erin: I have an Amazon Kindle and I get most of my books on there. It makes things so much easier, quicker and cheaper to buy and I don't have to store them.

Gail: I get ideas for new stories all the time. I love writing as well as reading, so I try and split my time between the two, plus all of my stuff for college.

Gail | 81 comments Okay, now I'm impressed again. :) You're reading all this AND doing college stuff...


Ralph Gallagher | 40 comments Mod
College is actually pretty easy for me. I'm double majoring in English and History. Both are subjects I love so they're easy for me. =]
