Selling Out
As I ponder, which I tend to do if not engaged in any kind of activity, I drift from one thought to another. Just recently, the tide of thoughts washed over the reviews that I put here. If you’ve read them, and there will be more in the future, you may notice that they are done because I got the book for free and promised I’d review it.
That got me to wondering, are other people going to think I’m selling out? Do I think I’m selling out? Am I selling out? Should I be writing this down? I can answer that last one.
I have been reviewing books for around a year now, and I have joined other teams since then. Why? Well, I like to read, and my wallet cannot keep up with my reading speed. I could go to the library, but many of the books I’m reading aren’t available there. Plus, I have to return them, so I wouldn’t have them on hand to reference or loan out. So, am I selling out, or not?
I don’t think so, and here is why. I have to earn the books. The companies don’t just send them to me. I have to read them and then think about them. After that, I have to put my thoughts in a logical order. Hard, no, but is all work hard?
If you’re reading this site, but don’t want to read the reviews, that is fine. You can see the categories right below the title, so you can skip them when it says “Reviews.” If you think I should stop mixing them in, I disagree with you, but you can still tell me what you think.
