How many pages did everyone read today?

For me it was 28 pages from one book, but it was a decent amount of work. If I read anything else it would be a 17 page chapter from the next book and that would take just as long as the other chapter did.

So I think I’m done for the day.

I read “The Garden Of Forking Paths” by Jorge Luis Borges and “The Depressed Person” by David Foster Wallace.

I keep track of all the stories I read. I have dreams of writing great literature someday, but it’s almost too much for me to imagine sustaining an entire novel of good writing, but I could see myself writing some good short stories maybe, so I set myself a goal to read at least 1000 great short stories, as a kind of education for myself. I’m almost to 300 now.
