/lit/ - Literature

Okay so here we go!

I'd rather not people fumble and have to hit the floor running so I wanted to put this up a little early to give you time to organize. I can already hear the dissenters talking about how it isn't about the number, you can't process that much, you should let a good book take it's own pace: Some of the cases are worthwhile and hey if this isn't your style sage away. But without a schedule I don't get things done and I want to give myself a setup for the sake of productivity. Hope you're in it with me.

Here's some general hints (feel free to contribute):

*There's a card for every week, and a week for every book, and a card for every bookmark.
* Give yourself some wildcards. Most people aren't going to be able to commit to a static list the entire year. Tastes change, and suggestions happen. You can make this the aces, the face cards, or a whole suit like I am.
*Vary the length and intensity of your picks. For every book over 400 pages I suggest something under 200. Something like that. Another good way to muscle up extra time for the big ones it to give yourself a few weeks of plays / poetry collections.
*Read multiple books concurrently if it helps, but don't get overwhelmed.
