Try reading the words on the page as though they were meant to be spoken plainly To a listener who is both you and not you— An imaginary listener seated not too far away. That way your attention isn’t only on the words you’re reading. It’s on the transmission of those words. As you read aloud, catch the rhythm of the sentences without overemphasizing it. Read so the listener can hear the shape of the syntax. You be the listener, not another person. You’ll be stopping often.
