BBC magazine reports on the rise in the number of books written about the author's year/month/whathever of doing something out of the ordinary. Like living in Provence, or not having sex, or having sex every day, or living without brand names or electricity or TV or eating only fast food....
If you were to write such a book, what topic would you pick? And what topic would you be interested to read about if not research yourself?
I really enjoyed reading this:
I don't think I'd like to do it.
I already live without TV.
Perhaps I could research what life would be like if I had the TV on all the time when it was safe (i.e. not driving...) I think I'd go nuts before the first week was out.
I guess if I had funding, it would be interesting to live only using "brand name" goods to see if the quality of our lives improved? We buy very little by brand now.
