“I'm just there to do interviews and stuff, because we have about 40 media people there, so it's a very, very busy week. But that's the only time.

“Writers are much better behaved nowadays, for a couple of reasons. Once upon a time nobody was thinking of a career, unless you lived in New York, so there wasn't as much pressure to present a respectable exterior. And secondly, there was no social media.

“I bailed out on social media for a while, and in short order I found I was able to sit down and read a book again. For the first time in a couple years I could read more than three pages without my brain wandering off into the ether. I drew a direct causal line between all this sort of ratta-tat-tat staccato stimulation that we get from the Internet and my growing inability to sit down and read anything that was longer than 500 words. But for me it came back because those synapses were already latent in my brain.” YearsFirstsBookAbleOrderThreeFoundSocialLinesBrainGrowingMediaCoupleInternetPagesFirst TimeDirectDown AndSocial MediaWanderInabilityStimulationLatentSynapses Author:Ron Currie Jr.
“I don't live in that world where I'm on social media, I don't got social media.

So I can't get mad about what they say.” WorldI CanReadingGamesSocialStuffMediaCoupleMouthsMadSocial MediaArticlesWord Of Mouth Author:Derrick Rose
