Reading

Part of the job of being a writer is to read which makes reading much less pleasurable since it's a job. There is a ready replacemement though: poetry. I can now put poetry in the interests section of my cv. Of course I don't read poetry just as I didn't read fiction before I had "writer" in the employment section of my cv. That's what hobbies are: things you want to do but don't unlike work which is what you don't want to do but do.
