Tonight's prompt is from a new source: The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig. We discuss all things related to the prompt, which is:
bareleveling
v. intr. trying to improve yourself without anyone else knowing about it, afraid that they'll think it's silly or grandiose or unnecessary, or that they'll end up calling too much attention to your efforts, transforming a casual tweak into a flashy rebranding campaign.
Armenian punt (barelavvel), to become better. Pronounced "bair-lev-uhl-ing."
Stories begin around the 16:40 mark and include life as a bookseller; a character having a conversation; a journey; and a poem about vulnerability.
