| Stephen King says, “If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot.” I’ve written something every day for the last 21 years, 8 months, and 2 days. It’s definitely a habit, and it definitely brings me joy. |
I’m on track to read over 100 books this year, which include books that our Mostly Social Book Club reads. The totals for the 3 previous years are: 102, 50, and 70, respectively. My joyful reading habit includes writing up 10-word summaries and 6-word reviews for each book I read. |
“My quantified self”: I track a lot of things in my life — so much so that I have a web page listing a great deal of them. I confess to being a spreadsheet whore, and more than once I have had to talk myself out of starting a new one. |
