Reading it again

So, I'm reading a book for the third or fourth time. I started it at work tonight when I was bored and got half way through it before my shift ended. I'm a unique breed in that I reread the books I already have. If I didn't I'd be buying a new book every few days and be completely broke. I tend to reread certain authors, which tells me I like their writing styles. I think I can learn something about how I want to write by reading the works of authors I like multiple times. Hopefully I can pinpoint what it is that keeps me coming back to their writing and incorporate it into my own. One aspect of being a good author is reading lots (and anyone who knows me can testify that I have that part down), but I need to get more into the writing part. Here's hoping that the creative juices will be flowing tomorrow.
