For some years now, almost every book I’ve read is non-fiction. I’ve read a ton of tech books, books on health, and some history mainly. I’m reading my first work of fiction in some time right now. 

I wonder if I should be reading more fiction. Furthermore, I wonder what, if any, benefit fiction may have over non-fiction? Or are they the same? It makes me wonder. When I was young, I read so many fantasy and sci-fi books. It was almost all I consumed, of course that was my peak Dungeons & Dragons era also. 

 My creativity is lacking these days, at least that is how I feel. Maybe reading more fiction would give my creative side a proverbial swift kick in the arse. Then again, maybe reading fiction vs nonfiction doesn’t matter as long as one is reading. 

What do you read more of? Any thoughts on the topic? Please drop me a note and share. 

Cheers!
