“Practice any Art: music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, no matter how well or badly, not to get money & fame but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow.”
Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.
Ending my two days of Shakespeare-focused trips at the Royal Armouries and the RSC! What wonderful days they have been! But very ready for the half-term break! @garforth_arts#TeamEnglish#TeamPerformingArts

When you read aloud to your kids, do the voices. Read with animation and enthusiasm. Put the emphasis in the right place and pause for punctuation. You're teaching them how the reading voice inside their head should sound. And that's huge for comprehension.
