For a long time, I abstained from reading when working on writing projects. Somehow, the fascination of other authors' invented worlds knocked my creative process off-balance.
These days, that doesn't seem to be a problem anymore, but I still tend to read in waves. I'll cram several books into a single month, then go several months without reading anything except work by my editing clients. (Granted, this haphazard schedule may be due as much to parenting schedules as to anything else. My life is crazy on occasion.)
