Finished "Behind the Mask: An introduction Into Covert Narcissism" by Aydin Guner. I gave this one two stars out of five, finding there was very little of value in the book, and in fact, some things that were the opposite of helpful. Would not recommend. There are also other books in this topic that are on my reading list. Hopefully they treat the topic with more thought than this book did. The author's advice upon determining that you're with someone that fits the description of covert narcissist: run. That sentence alone could save you the bother of reading this book.
This blog is for my reading, writing, and filmmaking stuff, including National Novel Writing Month and 48 Hour Film Project.

On Writing - reading
Finished "On Writing" by Stephen King. The first time I read this, I was in my 40s. This time I may have put too much emphasis on where Steven called out his age as of the writing, and noticed that it matched my age as of the reading. It's still a great book to read about writing, and I recommend it to anyone with an interest. What also struck me differently this time was the story at the end of this edition of him being hit by a van while walking, and how different that could have gone with the smallest of changes in other directions. Mortality is a thing, yeah?
