I recently look at some pile of books that I have. I found some books that I forgot that I had. There is some anthologies, some paranormal romance, some darker books. My conclusion, I may have too much interests and books can bring informations. There is also entainments. It is now easy to purchase books. I had a stockpile of books now. I bought them in stores and online. In the end, I ended up boying books faster than I could read them. by chance, I buy less books right now, so I may be able to catch up.
I decided to put them elsewhere, so I can see them. I can pick them and read them. Where they are now, they are less likely to be forgotten again. It will give me a lot of reading. On the other hand, they can give me inspiration. I am also tempted to discard some that no longer interest me. It what I have done with some books. I had read them and found out they weren't interesting to me. I just have to sit down and storting them out. Cover are always appealing but the content may not be as appealing than expected.
In the end, it was a good idea to bring out those pile of books. Not just for dusting them. As I looked at some of those books, I though: «I should read them! I may get ideas from that books» or «I will gather some informations on that topic and it help me writing a story». I also decided to put an hiatus on the acquisition of books. I have a lot of books that I want to read and I have to take some time to read them. I just hope those books will bring me some useful ideas down the road.
