Let's get a 'books in other languages' thread on the scene.

Can anyone read comfortably in a language other than english? I study french and use that as an excuse to read french texts in french which is great, and I'm currently reading Perec's 'W, ou le souvenir d'un enfance'. I'm reading a bunch of smaller texts then building up to 'A la recherche du temps perdu' hopefully

Anyone had good/bad experiences reading in a second language?

I like morals, which religion claims to have the final word on. Priests argue that without their job people would be running wild raping and murdering in the streets, which is complete horseshit. Much in the same way, I like art and culture, and people who major in literature claim that without them society would have nothing beyond Jersey Shore and Twilight, which is similarly complete horseshit.

Yeah, because namedropping high art is so intellectual, right?

Worst advice possible, you have to fucking force it.

What you need to do is leave your house. Set a specific time every or every other day when you go to the library. Sit down. Write. Then go home and play minecraft without guilt.
