>Henry James is definitely for non-smokers.

Why does no one write literary fiction anymore? No judgement, just asking.

I had my writing published in the yearly literary magazine made by the college I graduated from three years in a row. A lot of different people have commented on how good my work is. When I have a good idea and can run with it, I can really lose track of time just typing away and crafting a narrative.

I used to be that way. I'm 20 now but just a few years ago, you couldn't pay me to read a book from front to back. I thought that the only decent forms of entertainment came from TV and movies. But later on after listening to podcast episodes about books, I realized that they could go way further into detail that movies and TV just didn't have time for. I think that's the ticket for kids to get into literature.
