To write exophonically, first you need to read lots in the language you're seeking to write in.

In this episode I talk about:

-How I wasn't a reader growing up and became one only recently.

-Changing schools mid-first grade and having to quickly adapt to cursive (when all I new was printed letters).

-The first book I ever read on my own and liked:

Dailan Kifki by María Elena Walsh

-How I used to think I needed to read all the classics to "earn" the right to read modern authors. 🤦‍♀️
 
-Some of my favourite books:

Fiction:

  • Neil Gaiman - everything he does!
  • Alissa Nutting - Tampa
  • Madeleine Ryan - A Room Called Earth
  • Sarah Crossan - One (she writes novels in verse!)


Non- fiction:

  • James Clear - Atomic Habits
  • Mark Mason - The subtle art of not giving a f*ck
  • Natalie Goldberg - Writing down the bones


All this and more. Listen on :D
