Summary
Tonight’s reading comes from The Modern Writer. Published in 1925 and written by Sherwood Anderson, this story looks at the art of writing, as it was in the early 1900’s.
My name is Teddy and I aim to help people everywhere get a good night’s rest. Sleep is so important and my mission is to help you get the rest you need. The podcast is designed to play in the background while you slowly fall asleep.
