This is Vambrace (I don't have a dreamwidth account). I read books on my Kindle now; I can't seem to sit down with an actual book and read it anymore, either. It seems as if the fiction I read that my friends write is as good as, or better than, commercially produced books. If I read for entertainment, I might as well read what entertains me the most, right? I would rather read Restraint than the latest best seller. I have a Master's degree in English with a core in the English Renaissance. I know what I'm looking at.
