She looked at me. What? Is there something wrong with my idea? It's not very heroic, I said dismissively. I was expecting something with a little more flair.

Abenthy gave me an appraising look. I'd been waiting for it. It was the look that said, You don't sound as young as you look. I hoped he'd come to grips with it fairly soon. It gets tiresome being spoken to as if you are a child, even if you happen to be one.

Reading is professionally important for me to keep tuned in to what's being written in my genre, let's not lie. But that's not the reason I read. I read for my own emotional and mental health. If I stopped reading, I'd probably just die.
