Finished an assignment draft on Day Two, which means I'm caught up again on all my possible assignments. I could-maybe-should troll some request lists for more things, but I'm also working off the paper copy of the source for Griefing Pern, which means library due dates are a thing, so I'm probably going to be sinking a lot of energy into continuing to build up my post queue for that while I have the materials handy.

To answer the question, I tend to read more when I'm stuck in a spot on my writing, because I'm one of those people that of you background the process of trying to solve the problem, my brain does faster and better work and will take on any new inputs or go "huh, that's a clever way of doing it, would that type of thing work for this setting?" toward solving the problem.

When the words are going, I don't read as much, because I want to make sure I get all the things down before they fly out of my brain and I can't remember what it was.
