180 QA Reputation0 | runningfeet said 10 years, 9 months ago: I am having poems of John Keats by my side, can’t read it in one go. So reading any random poem written by him. Also I read Letters to a young poet by Rainer Maria Rilke few days back. The man (Rilke) lived a lonely life and gave some pretty good advice to a budding writer/poet. Heard a lot about rilke that’s why picked it up. Its a very good book for writers to find inspiration to write, for me it was ok. So far haven’t read any poem by Rilke, maybe ‘ll read in future. | |

I’ve also been reading short sci-fi stories in my spare time. “I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream” was the most recent one I’ve read. I didn’t find it quite as scary as people seem to think it is, but I did enjoy it nonetheless. | |

It started off in second person and moved to first person, and I have yet to figure out how the prologue relates to the rest of the book, though I’m sure I’ll figure it out in a few chapters! So far though, I would definitely recommend it. I mean, if you’re a fan of whole “wow creepy shit happens in this book” kinda thing they have going on, hahah. I also just recently finished “My Life as an Experiment” by A.J. Jacobs, which was an adventure. I learned lessons and it made me want to do a lot more with my life (like, say, compliment random strangers or something). I would also recommend it, but some of the chapters aren’t as alluring as others. | |

Next up is Henri Perruchot – ‘The life of Van Gogh’, because I love the artist’s work and I’ve grown interested in his life. Artists’ (auto)biographies are some of the most interesting things to read out there for me. | |
