<p>We're back with regular episodes! I've been reading again this week, and it feels good to read for pleasure again, something I haven't done too much of this year. I've been thinking a lot about something my undergraduate advisor said to me shortly before I graduated, and that's what this essay is about.</p> <p>If you want to help support the show, head over to our <a href="https://www.patreon.com/thousandwordspodcast">Patreon</a>, or share an episode with someone who might enjoy the show.
