Me Reading Stuff
This is simply me reading stuff. "Stuff" being poems and literature and essays and letters. And I'm also talking and praising and laughing and almost crying and hating and living and dying and loving and some other stuff. I try to keep this under 20 minutes because I have a deep fear of boring people.Podcasts
