Notes on improving the reading process.

NextThe End(s) of Reading

Last updated 6 years ago

Hi, Charles here.

I've finally gotten around to compiling my notes on how to read better.

The notes are a work in progress. A lot of sections are still incomplete, and some places might be confusing.

With that said, I'd like for these to become the best notes on the Internet. If you have any feedback or suggestions, let me know on Twitter at @mmeditations.

How to use these notes

Use the links on the sidebar to navigate between sections. If you are on a smartphone, click the "menu" at the top left of your phone.
