No Time

I like books, but sometimes it's hard to enjoy them as much as I used to. Why? Are you busy? Well, I'm busy and that's what is keeping me from reading books. But when I do read books, I get really into it.

After years of reading, I have quite a bit of things to tell you that might make reading (or writing books) easier.

1. When you see words that look like this or this, usually it means that they are really emphasizing that word.
2. When people are having a three way conversation, you should clarify who is saying what. Thinks can get a little confusing.
3. When you are reading (or, again, writing) someone's writing in a book, and see a word that looks like this, (this) it means that the person crossed it out (you probably already know that, [most likely] but just saying, in case you don't know).
4. When you're writing a book and someone in it has an accent, make sure that you don't make it too hard to read.

You might already know all this, but sometimes it's nice to just have a brush-up.

When you don't have time during the school year to read, then that's what summer is for! Reading! Although, you might be busy during the summer, so at least there's night reading.
Whatever the schedule, I'm sure that you can find time to read.
Besides, a good book can make you scared, excited, or happy. So, if you're feeling stressed, sometimes a good book can make you feel better.
