I’m currently re-reading Fahrenheit 451. I read it in my youth, but didn’t realize the depth of it then. I am falling in love with Bradbury’s writing style. He’s almost poetic at times.
Dandelion Wine is even more poetic than Fahrenheit 451. Bradbury advised aspiring writers to read everything they could get their hands on, and to include at least one poem a day.
Great quote. Love Bradbury.
Joseph Emerson,
He was one of a kind!

I sure wouldn’t argue that. I’m interested in almost everything out there. I think because it helps us appreciate a little something called “Wonder.”

To be a generalist in life beats being a specialist in topics aaaaany day, indeed!
Zoewiezoe,
Works for me!

Nice. I will add it to my list of things to read.
I feel the same way about an engineering degree…
masercot,
It worked for Heinlein.
He was fun, wasn’t he? I enjoyed Time Enough for Love a lot. The whole time travel paradox thing woven into a love story…
