lol @ me
I was kind of mentally scolding myself for how little I read these days, how I just don't have the discipline or interest the way I once did, etc etc.
I also only wrote a little on my dissertation today because I spent almost the whole day reading five different scholarly articles that were each generally around 30 pages. And they were interesting, but by the end I didn't want to read or write anything else (okay, except one extremely pertinent article my university doesn't give me access to :|).
Dear self: maybe, just a possibility, but maybe you don't have the discipline or interest in reading outside of academia the way you used to because you're in academia. And in literature specifically, which necessarily involves a metric ton of reading things.
