% Russian Spambot Overlords: Difficult to determine
Overall: I'm mildly disappointed that I didn't read more, that I didn't read more broadly, that I didn't write more essays, and that I couldn't drum up much interest even among my relatives. So it goes.
Disagree on breadth. I would never have read about ivory chess pieces, For example.
ReplyDeleteYou are kind, sir. (Though you might feel differently if you'd actually seen them; they really are stunning.)
DeleteI think where I'm dissatisfied is that I have a hard time pushing myself beyond the areas where I'm comfortable. I didn't read much that was really challenging, for example. The vast majority of the non-fiction for the year dealt with material facts (history, science, objects, etc.) instead of theoretical underpinnings.
As long as the dissatisfaction is a positive influence. I think I've said it before, I don't do much that I don't really enjoy, anymore. Life is too short.
