How can reading fiction be turned from escapism into personal growth?

Not all booktok…just majority.

You know if that how you want it then read the boom with the intention to learn something. Use your markers, sticky notes , write notes. You know in literature how you would read Romeo and juliet and analyze it …the characters the development. That's how you do it.

Just use it on the right fiction. Booktok fiction is kind of mmh 🤔 not meant for that. For you will be quite perplexed at the utter personal ‘growth’ you will find there.

Can I add pencil on top of my dry brush oil painting? Reason being it's easier to draw darker hair colour. Will pencil lead and oil paint interact and cause something horrible?

I don't know how I can put this.
