I'm committing to doing more reading,
you know...books. I'm going to try to read one chapter of non-fiction and one chapter of fiction a day.

Right now...Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Saved from Sacrifice by S. Mark Heim.

I figure if I say this publicly, I'll be more serious about it.

1. Go for it,
its something I should do myself...last year, I had the same challenge, and in the first three months I read 28 books, and then I slowed down dramatically....I've only read two books this year, but I got about 5 King novels on my shelf, just staring at me....

2. I hate to say this, because it applies to me as well, but: Less time on DU will help
you accomplish that.

As I need to do, too. I've gone down from about five books a week to only about two or so. That's not good.
