I've been known to cross the street while reading, which is admittedly not the best move! I generally only walk and read between the subway and my place, though, which is only about a 10-minute walk.avisannschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12486477882148877317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559320473948593050.post-13875391535524376102010-06-21T10:33:56.557+10:002010-06-21T10:33:56.557+10:00Hey Fellow Bookwalker, thanks for your post. Glad ...Hey Fellow Bookwalker, thanks for your post. Glad to hear that I'm not the only freak with this habit. Addictive is right and your also right about the cadence of your steps. I tend to walk faster when a book is reaching an exciting cliffhanger type crescendo, and slow it down during more poignant moments. Too much rain lately has stopped my frequent strolls, but hopefully the weather will fine up soon!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811715507475139339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559320473948593050.post-90837271466875810012010-06-19T11:41:18.249+10:002010-06-19T11:41:18.249+10:00YES!

I assure you that you are not the only one, because I too have cultivated this unfortunately addictive habit of reading and walking at the same time. Isn't it so convenient? You can enjoy exercise AND a book at the same time, and what's more, the former passes by so quickly while the latter really gets driven into your head by the meter of your steps!<br /><br />-A fellow bookwalker迷子の呟きhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13911903794429446586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559320473948593050.post-82527977215587774372010-06-15T10:40:32.556+10:002010-06-15T10:40:32.556+10:00Hey Jim, you're not the only one who has walke...Hey Jim, you're not the only one who has walked into an inanimate object. I have even walked into a few parked cars and they are much larger than a tree!! And I agree, no reading of scary poets or authors in creepy outdoor settings at night. How's business by the way?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07811715507475139339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-559320473948593050.post-72390697700800834832010-06-15T08:35:50.767+10:002010-06-15T08:35:50.767+10:00Hi Amber

If I was like you and not read aloud but listened to ‘The Turn of the Screw’ by Henry James or say Edgar Allen Poe I wouldn't get out of my driveway. Seeing that my route takes me through a quarry down quite deserted roads along the shoreline up through where old abandoned houses were.<br /><br />Happy Reading<br />JimJim Owenshttp://ozzbooks.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
