Do any of you read on your phone?
Is it enjoyable?
>>7321326
I don't even own a phone but I can imagine how painful it would be to read on such a tiny thing when an actual physical book would be the better choice.
>>7321326
I do.
When bringing a book is an inconvenience yet I known will have to wait for nondescript periods of time
iBooks app is pretty decent, scrolling text mode with a dim screen works wonders.
I have and it sucked, but I have a cheap phone with a tiny screen. Should be fine on a decent sized screen.
ITT: books women could never understand.

I picked up these four books recently, since I'm uncultured and trust places like 4chan to help me out with that kind of thing. Should I read these in order of publication date, or a different order? Bear in mind that I'm a fairly slow reader, so any one of them will be an undertaking.
I just finished Infinite Jest, and picked up Gravity's Rainbow. I too am living the meme
Have you read a lot before this? If you haven't read a lot of "literature," these are probably not the best places to start.
Infinite Jest is probably the easiest to understand of the 3. Ideally you read them in order of publication.
I've not read House of Leaves so no comment there.
I certainly wouldn't read Ulysses first.

What are some good writing exercises /lit/?
I have an itch to write, but I feel overwhelmed whenever I try to start.
>>7321187
Don't do it then
"Paint" your way to school/job/what ever

Write in the same document everyday for a week/month
Forced coherence and content is irrelevant
