#one thing that has remained consistent throughout my entire life #is that everyone and i mean EVERYONE assumes i am an avid reader #my classmates teachers friends family tumblrmutuals #everyone #and when i tell them i dont they get soooooo confused #(ngl ill read anything except for fiction 💀💀💀 i just physically cannot) #i never had the patience for long books and then my writing DEGREE kinda made things worse and now i cannot read for pleasure like before #ive probably barely finished 20 novels in my entire life sry to disappoint #the one assigned novel i actually enjoyed in hs tho was the handmaids tale -> #(i read more than was assigned each week AND this was before the tv series was even announced) #i did read some books when my fav hs english teacher had d.e.a.r. for like 15-20 mins in the beginning of every class everyday -> #(Drop Everything And Read) #i also dont rly read selfhelp books (as much as everyone in my life rly wants me to <33333) bc -> #i dont trust a random stranger to tell me what to do #idk u #for all i know u could be a horrible person in secret ??!? #i have more opinions on reading but ill stop it here #oh also yes i consider myself a writer in MANY mediums (just not traditional novel-style fiction) #mehrtalks
