Fiction, fiction, friction….

I got thinking (dangerous, yes I know)…

Reading all these blog posts for the ROW reminded me about the reasons that writers need to read other writers.  It’s a reminder that I need frequently because of how easily enraptured I become with research books and articles and news stories, etc..  It sadly is also a reminder I need frequently I realize because I tend to avoid reading fiction for pleasure.  And realizing this, I spent a little time trying to understand why.
