Reading, movies
My favourite thing to do in my spare time is reading. I try to read at least an hour a day both fiction and nonfiction. I tend to read more than one book at a time. I enjoy biographies and science fiction, especially. I also read up on writing and book marketing.
Also, I love to see movies on the big screen, especially those will big special effects. I enjoy all kinds of movies from science fiction to comedies to true stories and more.
