I write infrequently, because I need to have the inspiration and the free time concurrently, which doesn't happen as often as I would like. I am trying to be more consistent with it though. I've never been a heavy reader of fiction, but when I do read a fictional novel, I disappear into it, and when I finish it, it becomes a part of me. For that reason, I am careful about the literature I consume in the same way as many health-conscious people are about the foods they eat. I would prefer to read something excellent a second time, than to read something mediocre and new.
