How about reading aloud? I find performing books as I read aloud makes them more enjoyable. Because I’m reading to my kids, I have to read in a way that clarifies what’s happening, and I like doing unique voices for each character so they know who’s talking even if the name is after the speech. That forced me to really understand and imagine the story as in reading.
Another idea is to try narrative nonfiction like popular science or history books with a lot of story telling. The story behind the information can be a bridge to building your imagination.
Thank you for the sub recommendations! I’ll check them out, and the Monday thread.
HH really surprised me with this book, because of the female mc. She was so believable. Can’t wait to check out his other works!
