Dreaded Requests

I am not a rude or ignorant man, but there are some things, that I will not do. Unfortunately, I do not like to read a lot of what I am politely requested to read. I am often bombarded by people asking me to read and comment on their work. I do not like to be rude and ignore their pleas, but I just read what I like, not what I am asked to read. I choose whom I like, if I see a title I find interesting I will take the time to read it and make a mental note of the author. If I like what I read, I will dip into that author’s work time and time again. I do not care if they read my work or not that is their choice and I have mine. All I ask is let me make up my own mind. Do not bombard me with notes requesting that I read your work, as I am likely to ignore them. I am not being rude or ignorant it is I just do not do requests.
