Notes to Myself
I read constantly, and thus I’m regularly coming across new ideas or books or subjects that pique my interest. I think to myself “I need to read more about that!” and then fail to write it down, or write it down on a scrap of paper that subsequently disappears, or mark it on my Amazon wishlist and never see it again. It’s frustrating. I’m going to make this page a central spot to put down anything and everything that occurs to me as worth the effort of learning more. Learning is luscious.
