What I know about my 2019
Reading is that poetry will drop drastically and fiction (and better-quality
fiction) will rise to reflect my year-long goal to finish editing a
novel-in-progress. Meanwhile, in 2018 I read 429 publications as follows:
Poetry or
Other Genre by Poets: 347
Art: 15
Fiction: 40
Others: 27
The numbers
reflect a decrease from 2017, though 2017’s numbers were inflated from reading
manuscripts for two poetry contests. But even with said inflation, my poetry
reading dropped, and I suspect it’s because I shifted a lot more attention to
the visual arts (including setting up a new gallery). Here’s a comparison with 2017 reading:
Poetry or Other
Genre by Poets: 606
Art:
7
Fiction:
35
Others:
12
[Notes are not
comprehensive; I've got some parenthetical thoughts but it doesn't mean
anything if I'm silent on the book.]

what was there before is more real and solid than what is here now.")
