November is nearly here, and with it comes one of my favourite literary traditions — Nonfiction November, a month-long celebration of learning, and personal growth through nonfiction reading. Whether you’re a seasoned nonfiction lover or someone who usually sticks to fiction, this initiative invites you to explore real stories, wisdom, and change.

But this year, I’m adding my own twist…

📚 My Nonfiction November Commitment

I’m challenging myself to read at least four self-development books this month. That’s right — four books that inspire growth, resilience, and transformation. But I’m not stopping at reading. From each book, I’ll take one actionable insight — a “bloom” — and apply it to my life. Whether it’s a mindset shift, a new habit, or a bold decision, I want this month to be as much about doing as it is about reading.

And here’s the best part: you’re officially a participant if you read just one nonfiction book this November. No pressure, no perfection — just a gentle nudge to explore something real.
