Do you m...Hi cayce, thanks for the awesome comment. Do you mean a blog post where people just take photos of people reading without approaching them? I don't know... I think that's a violation of privacy. <BR/><BR/>The reason I make small talk with people I intend to 'catch' for readkl is that I want them to know that I'm taking their photo, why I'm taking their photo, spreading awareness and also the URL, you know? <BR/><BR/>It doesn't have to be an indepth discussion, mine usually aren't at least. I just ask them if I could take their photo, what book are they reading, ask if I could take a photo of the cover, and whether the book is theirs, how's the book so far, etc, small talk not lasting a minute at least :) any longer and it'll be hard for me to remember what to write later!<BR/><BR/>are you interested in contributing?dizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06292052183719560615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-607912513761328973.post-24748968616146035812008-10-03T10:04:00.000+08:002008-10-03T10:04:00.000+08:00For me, restricting my book choice to one genre is...For me, restricting my book choice to one genre is soooo boring! And yes, I don't get people who say that they only read 'non-fiction' because they can't relate to it. It boggles my mind - not to knock the guy in the photo, but in my experience, people who utter this are often on the boring, unimaginative side. :) Fiction opens up so many worlds - and in a lot of cases, make us understand different cultures a lot better. For example, who hasn't read Persepholis (ok it's a graphic novel, but still..) and come away thinking that Iranians in Iran durinng that era were just like anyone of us? (or our parents for that matter!) Fiction allows us to dream..<BR/><BR/>And on that note, there have been some cases where non-fiction, say a memoir or an autobiography, has been more 'fiction' than reality. :) Aka "A Long Way Gone" by Ishmael Beah. <BR/><BR/>I love non-fiction as well - particularly pop science, environmental books.<BR/><BR/>I know that you haven't had much luck with finding readers in KL - but perhaps a blog post for people who wanna snap photos of readers but are on the shy side, would inspire more contributions? :) Are readers in KL more open to talking about their books, or do they shy away??Caycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12298938250762370761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-607912513761328973.post-8869419537245180632008-10-02T11:44:00.000+08:002008-10-02T11:44:00.000+08:00That's great that you can post with your phone!
