Since we’re all book lovers here, I wanted to start this light Sunday discussion about reading and writing.
We’re a family of readers (and writers), and we recently got into a conversation about how reading and writing are evolving these days.
My daughter believes that “everyone has a story to tell, and, consequently, to write.”
But my husband argues that “too many people want to write, and too few want to read.”
I suppose I’m somewhere in the middle…
What are your thoughts?

I feel, you can’t write without reading a lot. It teaches patience and empathy and all other things, which you most definitely need to write something good. If the reader doesn’t feel what you want them to – you’re not a good writer.
I just want to read and have never had the desire to write. I would be horrible at it i always have found Language arts to be very difficult for me despite always being a voracious reader. It does seem to me there is more readers then writers.
I would love to write, but I dont think I have anything original to say. I’m sure there are plenty around like me. So reading is what I do. Maybe that should come first, and the writing after, with some inspiration.
