2020 was a crazy year.
But let’s look to 2021 and set some aspirational reading and living goals.
Good reading is good living, and how you read your books (indeed, what books you read) transfers to every other part of your life.
We’re talking about book clubs, reading plans, goals, roles, mantras, personal manifestos, breathing, teaching, Proust, Shakespeare, and much more.
And I’m wishing you and yours a very happy new year, thanking you deeply from the bottom of my heart for listening to Hardcore Literature this year.
If you have enjoyed Hardcore Literature this year, and would like it to continue next year, please show your support (call it a free Christmas gift) by leaving a great review over at iTunes. It only takes a few seconds to tap five stars, and if you want to leave a written review, make sure you recommend a work of literature for future shows and I will do it!
