First Book of the Year

So, I cheated a little. I started yesterday. I read “Life or Death Listening, a Hostage Negotiator’s How-to Guide to Mastering the Essential Communication Skill.”

The title, much like the rest of the book, could use a good solid edit.

But it had some good tips in there that I can use to improve my listening skills, so it’s okay. It’s only about 100 pages long, with lots of pull quotes.

I’m also listening to, The Topeka School by Ben Lerner. More on that later.
