#WordWeavers 10/27: reading or writing in your stories?
In Taliesin, we're still in the dark ages. Most people were illiterate and stories kept orally. Some characters learn to read/write Latin from the monks. Tali knows how to read/write, but still prefers the oral tradition.
In my SciFi circus story, reading is obsolete thanks to Stream rings that interpret QR codes for their wearer, except for Behrvon's circus troupe. He won't let anyone onstage to perform until they learn to read.
