I wrote this for the Guardian about the Couch to 5k for Reading. You can start today, I have a whole 'read across August' idea in this week's post: naomialderman.substack.com/p/ovids-exil... and here is my Reading Clinic: substack.com/chat/2882751... www.theguardian.com/books/2026/a...
Could a couch-to-5k for books get you back into reading?

Finished my Peep Show rewatch and now going to continue my Jesse Armstrong fixation with a read of these stunners and give my screenwriting muscle a workout (from bed). #scriptsky
Never yet made it through a film by both or one of the Safdie brothers without needing to pause it for a breather (or in todayβs case an hour long sleep). So intense. Going to have to finish it tomorrow donβt have it in me today.

I have started reading a book that i've had on my shelf since I was in my early 20s. Buying books really is like buying nice wine. You keep them/it until the time is right. #booksky #readersofbluesky

Watching Ladies First. I'm getting flashbacks of being ignored, spoken over, having my ideas stolen in a room and having to agree with shockingly bad ideas because the CD couldn't be questioned without him punishing you. Only thing they got wrong was that no creatives I knew wore a suit!
The pauses The silences The ummms And the ahhhhs The pitch and The Cadence Reveal more Of the truth In the middle lies Than if it were To be spoken itself. #vss365 #cadence #poem #poetry #scribbles
Elon Musk thinking that he can use AI to top anything Christopher Nolan does is utterly laughable.

My favourite mechanical pencil I use to underline things when reading is no longer made. It was so chunky and easy to hold. Sensory heaven. I just thought i found some and alas... all gone.
14 hours of sleep / dozing. Could not have needed it more.
Lovely words from a class manager.
Kev Lawson@editkev.football Β· 2w agoLovely words from Eddie Howe, who knows better than most what it means to be THAT GUY to an entire club (Bournemouth might not exist let alone be an EPL club were it not for his work). Hope everyone is doing okay with the news today. #nufc
RIP Kevin Keegan. Absolute legend. The man that lead the team that made me fall in love with football. Truly gutted. He was a real gent.

Was the creative director on a shoot. Only woman there. Someone tried to give me receipts to look after. I was like, Iβm not the right person to give these to. He looked around then at me and went, βYeah, but you know youβre gonna be better at handling this than the rest of us.β

SMD@anothersmd.bsky.social Β· last yr.what are some absurd work situations you can share? once i got called into a meeting i had nothing to do with because the consultant brought an engineer and no one in the room could understand him, so they asked me to translate. he was scouse. i translated from english to english.
Delighted for Spain. Iβd say FIFA need to investigate Argentina for their dirty tactics, but looking for justice from the corrupt is daft.
