I thought that I'd go into the reader interviews getting different results, but I was pleasantly surprised. I ended up having more people that read more than an hour a day and that knew quite a bit about literature. Maybe I got lucky and interviewed english students, or maybe there still is hope? I will say, though, that almost everyone spent a disgusting amount of time on their phones and messing around with social media.
Thanks for responding, Hellie. TCU students are generally a much more literate group of people that the general population, but the interviews were a good start to open up our discussions. Good work. dw
