If you’re a writer, chances are you’re a reader too. Like birds of a feather, stuck together. I enjoy reading, but I’ve let it slide on my priority list. This year I decided to set myself a goal number of books to read:
30
Well, it’s August, and so far I’ve read (and actually finished…that’s a story for another blog) just nine books. Conveniently, there are 21 weeks left in the year, and 21 books I have to read to make my goal of 30 books. So….(inhales deeply) I have to read one book a week every week for the rest of the year, if I want to meet my goal.
Why am I telling all of you this? Well, now I am accountable to you all, aren’t I?!

Very smart. I use the same trick to get stuff done. Tell the world and you feel obliged to actually do it 😉 Although some projects fail or plans change, it does work 🙂
So now the big question, did you manage to read those other 21 books before the end of 2013?
Hi Tim, almost, but I was a few short! I’m ahead of schedule this year though 🙂
Well done (with the schedule for this year 😉 ) and keep it up 🙂 Hope you’ll add my book to the list once I’m finished with it (and had it translated to English) 🙂
