My First 100 Days
Well, today marks 100 days into my New Year’s Resolution. I must admit that while I first found the task a bit daunting, I sure am enjoying the hell out of it. There is so much good short fiction out there. There’s some bad stuff too but overall, I’ve come across some really great reads. As an added bonus, it’s causing me to read more. Reading faster through my impossible book backlog is a good thing. And it has allowed me to better organize my time in “productive” ways. For example, I’ll use small pockets of do-nothing time to toss-off (?) a short story. Or, If I don’t feel like committing to a novel, I will read a novella rather than not read at all.
All in all, it’s a good ride so far.

Here’s one for you:
Potter of Bones
Its online somewhere. Quite good. And its rather long so its worth several points!
You know, purchasing fewer books would also help decrease your backlog.
I read Potter of Bones as part of Dozois’ Year’s Best #20. I rated it 3.5/5 (review forthcoming).
Buying fewer books? Yeah, like that’s an option.
