Six apps and extensions I use to manage my reading workload

“I ask myself: What about the text is making me feel this way and why? How does the reading relate to past and present life events? When I finish, I feel a lot better knowing I’m in a calmer headspace to continue reading.”

‘It’s all I ever wanted to do, sit with language’: Q&A with Translator in Residence Saskia Vogel

“It’s nice to feel like this, to have a sense of purpose. I think storytelling has always been my through-line. Linnea was talking about how language itself isn’t a home. It's what you make of language that makes language a home.”

Haikus by Princetonians: Dr. Mayumi Itoh’s haiku workshop returns to Frist

“Because haikus have such a dependence on the writer’s surroundings, several students presented poetry that differed dramatically from that showcased in the in-person sessions. The students were experiencing the seasons differently than they would at Princeton, which was reflected in their writing.”
