Reading by Neassa

 Hey guys, it's Neassa. I don't really have a specific topic for this post, so I'm just gonna talk all things reading. Why am I doing this, you might ask? Well, it's because reading books isn't confined to one subject, so neither is this post. I am often asked, why reading? Why are you a bookworm when you could be a gamer or a sportswoman? Well, firstly I can still be a gamer or a sportswoman and still be a bookworm ! It's not a job or a commitment, it's just for fun.  And why reading? If I'm completely honest, I'm not sure. I really can't remember a time when I wasn't surrounded with books whether I was reading them myself or having them read to me by m parents, so I have been enjoying stories for years ,and I just never stopped! I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but I also like writing short stories. I would love to write a novel, and am really excited about that. I like writing because I like to try and cover topics I lik...

How To Buy Books For And With Your Child

  A key component of reading is, well, books! And if your child doesn’t have any they want to read they won’t read. Period. So it is vital that your child has access to books they want to read. All The. Time. Especially if they are hesitant to read in the first place. With this in mind, I have created a list of hints and tips to help your child to pick books for themselves, along with some bonus tips on how to pick books for them yourself. No pressure to pick Make sure your child knows there is no pressure to pick a book at all. You are just going for a look, and if they pick it’s a bonus.  This can help to pick more enjoyable books as they are likely to buy books they actually want to read, rather than picking books for the sake of it. Money Is No Object At least at first, focusing on the price of the books will deter your child from picking the more expensive ones, that they may want more. While many book shops can be expensive, we would argue that it is worth it to encourag...

The Future

  hvhgrdkhgs;igfvrs/gsvh.dc\k.hvzouesnzvzh’zafbj/zfhf;dhuhufdz;;bzxdc’uszfd.ghdzshgf That was me getting myself to type. It is difficult to know how to start these things sometimes. I’ve decided to keep it in the post anyway to show you guys that we are not perfect and to be more authentic. Another personal post today. It is approaching a whole year since we launched this business. I cannot believe it. Sometimes still have to shake myself and say: I have a BUSINESS. Selling BOOKS. I am living the dream. And I have all these people (you guys!) behind me who believe in us and are getting benefit from our books and our content. It is amazing to think how far we’ve come. But today I’m going to focus on the future. I’m going to talk about my hopes, dreams and wishes for this business, which I hope can become my lifetime job. I think that reading is extremely important. I think it is why I am where I am today. It is how I learn and grow. It is my everything, and running a business that s...
