For instance, if I'm writing a paranormal romance, I shy away from reading paranormal romance. I have no clue why I do this, I'm just grateful I read in a wide variety of categories.C R Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212244053084461118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162552408162747159.post-3776576615437122432011-04-06T13:59:52.716-07:002011-04-06T13:59:52.716-07:00Thanks for the understanding and the inclusion of ...Thanks for the understanding and the inclusion of positivity. I was worried my post was too negative. (Had a rough night). <br /><br />Anyway, yes indeed the bar has climbed in my reading standards. I think that's why I reread old favorites so much. :)Brooklyn Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11285434689426722832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162552408162747159.post-38327317085116251752011-04-06T13:54:21.217-07:002011-04-06T13:54:21.217-07:00So far, if the book is good then it takes me away ...So far, if the book is good then it takes me away into the story. I don't pick at the writing. But if the book is not good, I tear it apart. I determine why it wasn't working. How they could have done it better. How I would have done it.<br /><br />The bar of what I think is good and not good is getting set higher. So I worry that I won't be able to enjoy a book because I spend so much time writing. I'd hate that. I love reading. Thankfully, there are a lot of great writers out there who can still take me on that journey.Tamela Buhrkehttp://www.paranormalize.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162552408162747159.post-30829490281059319472011-04-06T13:52:46.066-07:002011-04-06T13:52:46.066-07:00I don't think I can read a book without puttin...I don't think I can read a book without putting on the "author/writer" hat- red pen in hand some days- great post<br />Dawne PAn Open Bookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07844845979538255047noreply@blogger.com
