Decisions About My Reading

I've made a few decisions about my reading. 

I plan to read:

More classics (and yes, that includes classics written

for children)

More plays (many plays are also classics)

More comic books (which might include Classics Illustrated,

which I consider excellent introductions to the original works)

Books I'm Currently Reading

This replaces, and will be published more frequently than, my
list of "Books Read In The Past Week," and will include short
story collections, (fiction and nonfiction) joke collections, and
