I am a curious bird: I write novels, stories, poems, songs, and films ("Half A Bee" http://reframecollection.org/films/film?Id=2323). How do I find the time? By looking at my watch! Sure, we all got 24 hours to each of our days, but the longer the story grows, the less time it takes. Hence, you probably won't have time to read a book, even if you do purchase it--it will sit for a while on your coffee table, spark a couple loose-ended conversations, and graduate to become a door wedge. And if that's what happens to Shakespeare, how, pray tell, might I increase my sales beyond one copy for my shelf and one copy for mom? Needless to say, all these volumes are decent reads, and if you purchase one, I hope it is entertaining or otherwise useful.
