Readers Needed

Breakpoint's article for today deals with the important issue of America's falling literacy rate. Not in that Americans can't read, but that we are losing the ability to read and process complex material. It is an interesting point for those of us who write. What happens if there's no one left to read what we do?

Go here for the article.

As for me, I'm going to pull a book out with my kids tonight.

  1. I think there are fewer and fewer people I know who actually read just for the sake of reading. There are a lot of book clubs out there to give people the excuse to read, but few who will do it just to enjoy or... heaven forbid... learn.
