Feature and Follow - Reading Outside

8474595901 873f4993f4 Feature & Follow #137 

I read outside only rarely, mostly because by the time I am settled into reading the mosquitoes are out (in the summer) or it's 20 degrees out (winter). I.e. it is late at night.

When I do, I like to cozy up in the shade, on the grass under a tree, on a chair, or even just back to a wall. I do enjoy it, especially if there is a soft breeze and the sun is out. 

I actually spend more time writing outside than reading, mostly in short bursts as I wait for the next event or am picking up from an activity.

What about you?

    1. I try to slow down and really see what is around me. That helps me focus on what I'm writing. You?

  2. I don't read outside much either but when I do I usually choose a bench in the shade by a river near my house. It's comfy. :)
