Hello,
I am a native english speaker, 36m. I was never a big reader until the past couple of years. I often find it very hard to express myself and form my thoughts into sentences unless i sit down and write it out. I believe working on my vocab would be a good step for me. Any ideas how to approach this outside of just reading the dictionary?
Advice for expanding my vocabulary?

Re: Advice for expanding my vocabulary?
Received wisdom seems to be that the best way to improve vocabulary is through sustained reading. And that would be reading of the classics, even if they are in translation (to English).

I am not a big reader either but I love listening to podcasts.
