Where's Your Nose?

Currently, I've got my nose stuck in several books and have a few more queued up to follow these. . .
   
 
I'm often asked how I find the time to read, which in my little mind translates into, "How do you find time to breathe?" Reading isn't simply a want, it's a need. Especially if you're a writer. Why? Because it hones your craft, expands your creativity, gives you something to aspire to and/or steal to re-work in your own words. Yes, writers do that. Get over it. 

I mostly read at the gym when I'm on an elliptical or treadmill. I know that doesn't necessarily make for the best workout, but hey, it's better than parking my rear on the couch while nibbling bon bons. I also keep a book bedside to snatch a sentence or two before sleeping and I stow a book in my car for those times when I'll end up in a waiting room.

And I'm in good company. Curious about what other movers and shakers are reading? Click on the photo below and find out.
