I love a good story, being taken to a place where reality fades away and wonder and excitement are the norm. As I wandered the isles and looked at the interesting titles and scoffed at the blatant PC push infesting new titles I came to the realization that my entire reading life was solely derived from my desire to escape from reality instead of facing it. I am still processing this experience and trying to sort it out. I have escaped from reality for far too long.

The more I write, the less I read.

Most text these days is just entertainment, and when it comes to that, why would I pay someone for several hundred pages of what they think is entertaining, when I can make custom-tuned, bespoke entertainment in my own home using nothing more than a pair of hands and a keyboard.

I'm going to echo the sentiments of some of the other people here and say read the classics; specifically, read philosophy.
