I upload every week on Thursdays at... some point... so check back then! I am focusing a lot on productivity, educational, and typing videos, from language learning and linguistics to game design and computer science, but have the occasional split here and there. You'll also find a handful of lifestyle vlogs and such!

Ayy good lighting Mark! You're slowly revealing your plan of becoming an Owl City traveler 😆 What do you do with the books once you're finished? Just donated a bunch of 'one timers' off my shelf haha

I don't know if this has been asked before, but I have a question. How are you able to consistently go through several books? Great content btw!

I probably talked a bit about this back in the spring reading rambles, but I just started to focus on reading itself without some sort of goal. First thing I did was only let myself have caffeine or whatever whilst I read, and that just got me reading every day. In other words, I stopped focusing on trying to finish 1 book a week, 4 books a month, etc. and just... read whatever I wanted to read. Then use time to read stuff that was a little harder (i.e. reading Works of Love isn't the same type of vibe as Mitch Rapp, even though they're both books I want to read). As the days go by, you just kinda... have read books. 10 pages a day for a month is 300 pages, and some books just totally wrap you up. I also read multiple books at a time, so that I can't use "eh I don't feel like book X right now" as an excuse. The pages just... add up. Don't focus on the end goal I guess. I hope that answers the question! Also- good to see your name again! Was almost like a mini flashback haha

@@markbacon78 Thanks for replying. I’ve been wanting to get back into reading since I finished up college in May. Yeah it’s been a while since I’ve commented lol. I love your videos and can’t wait to see more.
