Attention spans are shrinking, which has young people unable to focus on movies or books. This is bad news for authors and filmmakers and those who love to lose themselves in a good story.
Long-form storytelling may be on the way out
Young people are turning away from books and movies at an alarming rate. As a former film reviewer for a small newspaper—one of the best gigs ever—a recent post caught my eye. It seems that many yo…
