Literally entered this thread to type out this exact post.

yeah that or some kind of notebook. for notes.

>>9016851
Do you have nothing to say?

>>9016859
What sort of notes? Notes about my life? No.

>"They're still out there," my mother said to me as she passed the window. She meant the people in the water, training for the triathlon.
>"They're far brave than I," I muttered. The year previous, my brother had brought his girlfriend to stay. While they were coming out of the water on one hot, sunny afternoon shortly before Christmas, his girlfriend disturbed a stingray and ended up with a barb in her thigh and week-long stay in hospital. I haven't been brave enough to go in the water since.
>That's fine, though. I was sitting at the table, cheerfully occupied with stitching up the neck of a taxidermied stoat.

My life is tedious. Notes about random things I want to put in a novel? I keep those in their respective folders with all the other associated materials and research.

So what notes?

This is more like the first paragraph but the first sentence is too short for you to get a sense of what I'm writing.

>I am afraid. But more than that I am angry at myself. If there is a delay in my death it can only mean they are setting a trap for me. I shall hide this diary, invent some explanation, and wait for them near the boat, ready to fight, to escape. But I am more worried about the mistake I made, It may deprive me of the woman forever. I ruined everything.

"Spicy meme tacos for dinner once again; god mom really needs to stop fucking that spic gardener. I know she's lonely but fuck!" he said aloud at the dinner table accidentally.

You can't do it automatically but here some advice.

1. Get calibre if you don't already have it.
https://calibre-ebook.com/download

2. Rip the DRM off of the ebook.
If you're not computer savvy, nevermind. If you know how to use a computer Mac/PC well enough to follow directions, here is the website with the calibre plugin to do it.
https://github.com/apprenticeharper/DeDRM_tools

3. Convert the ebook, once the DRM is removed, to something that you can edit it.
I suggest DOCX. You can then open your book in MS Word orLibreOffice or whatever. Now apply your highlights, notes, whatever to your ebook. You can then convert the saved file back to mobi and put it back on your kindle.

Who knows

Remember that time she was on twitter bragging about donating her tainted blood>

i'm hoovering around it since about a year... i could download it for free in french but my french isn't THAT good. i have played with the idea of using it to polish up my french in one go. but i don't know if my brain can process learning french and reading proust at the same time

I only read the 1st book (that was great) and the last one (just because I had to - but it makes no sense imho since I didnt know about all the other books inbetween). It's absolutely stunning, smarter than many philosophy books, and yet the purest literature. I wonder if it would be a good thing to read it in any language that's not your native one, because it may take some effort that would take away the pleasure. Not sure about that, but hell, some sentences are almost one page long, I wouldn't be able to read it in english.

>>9016589
if you have to keep hoovering around it, why not just put it on a table?
