I hadn't done much reading myself before I contacted the gods, but then I wasn't altogether aware that that was going on at the time. The contacting, I mean. I'd read a fair few of the myths as a child, but I was reading Exploring the Northern Tradition by Krasskova (despite her having gone a bit strange, I maintain that that book is fairly decent an intro) and she begins each segment on a different god with a call or prayer. When reading the segments I felt many of the gods pop in to take a look at me. To what degree that counts as "meeting" I don't know; I certainly said my hellos and effectively bobbed a curtsey and so forth as I went, and I was formal about it, but the situation was a bit odd.
I think I'd have liked to have read a bit more before meeting them. But there we are. It wasn't something I had planned on doing.
Shearaha I've done a lot of reading. But I've yet to try and contact any of the Gods themselves. I feel a pull, but I'm very nervous that I'm not good enough, or interesting enough for them to take any kind of interest in me
They're interested enough for you to feel that pull.
I think I've come across a lot of people who feel that way - that they're not good enough. And I'm never really sure what to say. I mean, I don't think I'm particularly better than you are, or more interesting, and they're fond enough of me... so they should be fond of you too, theoretically.

I'm working on them, but it's a long road ahead, and I've hit a few set-backs already.
So would you say the calls/prayers in Krasskova's book are a good way of introducing yourself, or would a blot be more approiate?
