Today at the library a man got one of the huge coffee table books of the shelf, took it over to the corner, lay it on the floor, then sat, with his elbows on his knees and his chin in his hands, and stared down at a huge full spread picture of an alligator for several minutes.

Read unapologetically.

Read publicly. Read privately. Read anthologies. Read short stories. Read constantly. Read occasionally. Read quickly. Read slowly. Read history. Read erotica. Read middle grade. Read psychological. Read classics. Read fantasy. Read queer. Read straight. Read the good. Read the bad.

And never apologize for what and how you read.
