To explain, I started checking Reddit a few weeks ago -- mostly just procrastination -- and today there was an IAMA (I am a) by Ken Jennings where he answered questions.
One response/question was from his one-time roommate Brandon Sanderson.
Going through Sanderson's past reddit comments, I came across several posts about writing and reading, and one on writing mentioned reading as much as possible.
This made my dwell upon my reading holdups, and so I thought about posting it somewhere.
This is the only board/site I have/keep a login for, and I figured there'd be some like minds here, especially given all the "I no longer read WoT" folks there were at Wotmania. And so I came here.

Who else has (regretfully) lost much of their joy for reading, and what are your reasons?

Double replying, but I don't care. This reply addresses content of your post.

I write most of my notes with pen and paper, unless it's a specific idea on a project I've started.

I still think the best solution is to just sit down with some Wodehouse. *NM*

It's more likely the internet, and, to a lesser extent, TV than it is games.

You're either too tired or you've simply outgrown certain kinds of genres/books

I had, to some extent, but then I started working with a 1 hour train commute each way.
