…actually, why not?
Have you ever regretted reading a book — which one and why?
There’s too much system collapse going on for unhappy reading.
Don’t like the book? That’s ok. DNF and move on.
Hate reading on the other hand: Tell me everything. Whomst, why, and wherewithal… Tell. Me. I shall be discreet.

If you had to give one life-changing tip, what would it be?
You know what it is.
You think about it randomly. It probably pops up once a day. A thought here, a sigh there, a quiet wish, a silent yearning.
You’ve been putting it off for so many sensible reasons. Except they’re just that: reasons.
You consider it and something sneers, “Be realistic.” But what’s so bad about making something real?
So, do it. Do the thing. Plan for it. Prepare for it. Put things in motion to make it happen. Small steps, baby steps, mistakes here, mishaps there, trial, error, shining success, outright failure – it’s all part of the process. And yes, trust the process. It’s forward motion.
You’re thinking about it right now, aren’t you.
So, take that first step. One, two, four, seven, and suddenly you’re walking.

What’s a skill you consider basic, that most people don’t actually know how to do?
Something is happening to reading skills and it is not good. Not just attention spans, which are declining rapidly, actual comprehension.
As in, not only understanding the words written, but understanding the context, subtext, intertext, and metatext of what you are reading. And knowing where to check if you don’t understand what you just read.
There is so much to reading, and it’s a skill humans really shouldn’t neglect, especially in the young.
Read bedtime stories to the children. And yourself.
Your inner child needs attention as well.
