Reading, the other Entertainment.

Written By Betty Almond

I find joy in reading, transporting to other places, and giving my mind a break from everyday life. My taste in material is eclectic. I will read everything from biographies to dystopian novels. My choice is dependent upon my mood. I am the type of person who retains information better when I read it. Sometimes, it is a blessing and a curse.

One genre I do not seek out very often is horror. There are some great books in the genre and that is the problem, they are written by really good writers who get in my head living like a squatter that I cannot convince to go away for days after reading it. For me this leads to listening for every little noise at night or waking up to go to the bathroom catching my reflection in the mirror.

Any-who, todays point is: Read, let your imagination run wild, and for goodness’ sake, if you’re going to read horror, move the bench at the end of the bed before you break a toe trying to get away from the mirror ghost.

B. R. Almond is the author of For the Love of D. H. Lawrence. She enjoys fashioning suspense designed around family. The intricate emotional attachments mixed with how far one will go, be it to right a wrong, stay alive, or even for love is her sweet spot. And yes, she throws in a little romance. And if she can plug in a motorcycle scene, well that is icing on the cake.

A writer, farmer, and lover of motorcycles, she is from the southern region of Arkansas living the three L’s (Live, love, and laugh). When away from the keyboard, she toils around in the garden, dodges wildlife free ranging in her yard, and always on the search for a place to dive fork deep into great Cajun food. Mostly, she can be found walking in the woods thinking on her next writing project.
