New Reading Materials

I’ll admit I’m not a huge reader.  I used to read novels and poetry constantly.  When I was younger I fancied myself a poet/writer.  I would write horribly self-indulgent poetry.  I would write the first ten pages of whole novels only to realize that I had nothing to say.  I actually joined to Army and [...]
