Why read (a book, an article)? (Engage in, devote time and effort to [read]) Write (it down)? Get (it) published?

A book is (more than a) collection of words. On a theme. A topic(s). An article, the pages and chapters in a book, and the book represent the outcome of sustained effort. Applied over time. Reflecting experience, (and data) over significant time. Reading is a shortcut to gain access to this material. To sample, skim, taste. Do a deep dive (into). Slowly. Coming back to, and reflecting on the material. Taking note of, and making notes on. What resonates personally. Is useful. To apply, build upon. A book, or collection of essays gives access to thinkers, and practitioners in a field. Their individual and collective insight(s), and experience.
Choose to read what is relevant, useful, challenging. To explore, and expand thinking. Perspective. Possibilities. Personal practice(s).
