I'm gonna ask it here and now.
How do you read more?
I've been awake for 10 hours and I've gone on 4chan, ate supper (breakfast) hung out with my friends and ate supper (real), came home, jerked off, went on 4chan and I also watched some youtube in there. There are people with full time jobs that make time for exercise and all the important life shit and they read more than me. I have no excuse. I haven't had a job in 3 years.
My brain keeps telling me I want to read it all so I know what's the best of sci-fi (at least for my taste) so I can talk about it here, make obnoxious shitposts, and obviously enjoy the reading part. I read 100 pages of Hyperion yesterday and enjoyed all of it and thought "I had fun doing that." But here I am, putting it off.

I'd like to be a participating member of all this. I have 250 books downloaded. About half of those are sci-fi and some fantasy, the rest are classics and whatever else. I've got all the hot hits at my finger tips like Wizard Knight, Neuromancer, New Sun, Tolkien, Black Company, and I've already read Blindsight, Dune, 3 Body Problem, Ender's game and most of it's sequels as a teen.
What's wrong with me? Why can't I just sit down and pump them out? It's a much better use of my time.

Hmmm...well...thanks for publicizing my book.
Guess I'm back to having LARPers.
They seem to be doing a good job, so I guess I don't mind...sort of flattering, actually.
FYI, for reasons mostly related to approval delays, ScribbleHub presently has more free chapters of my novel than the other sites.
