In 2014 Booktrust surveyed 1500 adults and found that 36% give up on books because they get bored. I think we need more high-octane, gripping, blistering-paced reads to reach this demographic.

That is a huge theme in the book. How it’s hard to see the people you love for what they are, good or bad. Your wife will probably never recognize your genius because she was in the bathroom with you that time you got food poisoning, the same way you’ll never see your best friend as an idiot because you’re wired to always take his side.

If it’s going well, I don’t want to stop—I can edit later, but if I’m struggling, then I keep retracing my steps until I find my direction.
