I check my Mentions occasionally in the back office which is how I find out that I've been tagged if I haven't seen the video in the first place. So belated thanks! I read Rory Stewart's book finally last week inspired by your finding that library hardback edition. I loved it. Thanks for the nudge. I will try to do this tag at some point. Cheers!
Like you, I have always found that I am able to articulate myself with very little problem, but I would never want to become overly-polished. I find I gravitate to the kinds of BookTubers who are more conversational in their manner. Which is why I am a devoted fan of your channel :)
Oh this is a fun one! I enjoy the reflection here although it's hard for me to believe it's been nearly a year since you started. My favorite Slovakian UA-camr 🫶🏻 jokes, I hope you recover from your tongue tied maladies. Very cool to hear about how Booktube has smoothened you out and improved your communication. Let's hope the channel continues to grow so you can afford those Peruvian lapdances ✊🏻 And thanks for the tag - I will be responding!!
I very much agree with you about the difficulties of having reading draw out over a long period. And I am really envious that you can speak articulately off the cuff. I'm afraid the camera still terrifies me, even after five years.
Great watching new video so soon. I am enjoying my day off as much as I can, I hope you do as well, and that you are trying to improve writing while you are looking for the job you will love to do
I think I can post question here, I have not seen the question form, don't know if you are responding to emails. What do you think is a future tendency of English literature? In general, what are main characteristics that can be described as future trend? Some relevant new releases? Since it is Shaketember, I have expected more analysis or interesting facts about Shakespear in following videos, videos about less performed plays (and there are lots of them). It is not illegal, but I do think it is a bit foolish to miss such great opportunity.
What do you think of, let's say, King Lear? If I am not mistaken? Your personal Shakespear favorite? How some of the things he wrote for necessities of theaters of his time can be rewritten to suit the modern staging needs and should it be done at all? Should staging of Shakespear's plays be changed and stay old fashioned so that it looks more interesting and exotic, so to say? What can be taken from old staging way (or should it be) and reintroduced/modernized?
I think a future tendency of English Literature will be a continual inability to divorce a writer’s identity and political persuasion from the objective quality of a work
2:51 Being pathetic at something is bit over the top, exaggerated...bad or good sounds more thruthful 4:51 if you can buy a company of a female for this amount, that only means that 20pounds note is not completely worthless. So, logical question can only be: what else can be bought for 20pounds? 12:23 maybe it is important to hold head bit up and almost not mimic when talking for filming you tube videos in general, I do suppose there is a difference when it is not done, but this is really annoying to watch. It is not about you, it is about tendency and filming style that makes the presenters look unnatural, and I have to comment how wrong this is and how does it look artificial in a wrong way.
@@JoeSpivey02 Can that be said for literary genre? If the answer is yes, is there an incentive for authors to write about things beyond daily politics or incentive to cast politics aside when writing about common themes?
I am interested to know whether you have any opinion on this new Cormac Mcarthy novel that has apparently been ‘discovered’ and no doubt will soon be published? I refused to buy a copy of Set a Watchman, the so called prequel to Kill a Mockingbird, that was unearthed after Harper Lee’s death.
I've never read a single syllable of Cormac McCarthy's writing but most of the people whose judgements I respect, dislike his style. Posthumously discovered manuscripts always make for fun speculations about their origin though!

It's nice to know that I'm preaching to the converted! 🤣

Use your response as a springboard to make very many more videos!

This was really fun…to hear your responses. The questions are really fun!

@@JoeSpivey02 Steve is a vociferous Cormac hater. I still want to read him at some point, he just insn't a priority.
