Read a lot more of other authors? Spend more time on my crafts instead of Hatrack? Not have splurged on Billy Goat's with Farmgirl yesterday?

What would I do without OSC? I would think a lot differently. Have you ever noticed how some authors, if you let them, subtly change the way you think? Of course, I'm now rereading all of my favorite Card stuff after a two or more year not-reading-Card-period, so in that rereading I haven't read anything except Card in the last couple of weeks, so maybe the effect is a little more pronounced, though still small. But there is a certain thought process in all of Card's books. Most pronounced in the Ender and Bean novels, but still there in the other works just coming from the fact that the same mind wrote them all. I'm a bit more skeptical, but at the same time I find myself looking more for other's motives.
Without Card . . . I would have nothing to read this week. And I would have missed out on a lot of great reading and some things I would rather not have read (funny thing is, with Card, I either love it, hate it, or vacillate between the two. There is no middle ground. And the 'hate it' is a very, very small percentage.)
