Don't worry, Janice, I do it too. It takes liking more than one poem by an author to get me to buy his or her book, but enjoying what I read in a magazine or online is a big factor for me in spending my measly bucks on books. And Maryann, I guess I'm weird along with you. Reviews with quotes get me to buy books. Then again, I almost never go to readings so of course I don't buy books after them.
