READER or WRITER? / myLot

Are you more of a reader or a writer? Today, I feel tired or writing that I ended up reading almost all of the discussions but not having to respond to any of them. I have my ideas but i cannot tailor it to words. I don't know why, maybe I just feel lazy or what. How about you?

I like to discuss more because that's how you make money here. I read and respond. I cannot just waste my time reading and reading and not actually accomplishing anything. Maybe you just feel tired today and you need some rest.

Thank you and I actually did rest. I also agree with you, sometimes when we just tend to read and read there is like we didn't achieve anything.

I think it is innate for all humans to stop doing things that doesn't serve or feel us right. Its ok if you stop or don't read things thay you don't like. Anyways, yes we have to write here if we wanna earn and the good side is we are also developing our talent skills.

I am most truly a writer over a reader. I like to watch and observe and then write things down on a piece of paper and create narratives and stories around them. So yes a writer first. This is an interesting take I found online regarding your topic: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/650080-are-you-a-reader-or-writer

Reading is more for all to before write on a paper..... I always give preference to read more and more for learning.... Telling something for others gives perfection along with a relaxation. Our whole life is not sufficient to learn all the things.. We always try to get information to a maximum limit for the sake of our satisfaction..

learning new things

reading is better to learn

to put on a paper

Yes we cannot grasp everything. We can get knowledge or information not just by reading but also in perceiving things, or just by being observant. Anyhow, documented history of the past gives as full understanding of everything. Thanks for the discovery of writing and of course KUDOS to all the writers!

I like reading more than writing. I am lack of creativity and imagination juices in my brain to make my own book. But I think it is cool if I can produce a book.

I guess everybody loves reading, writing really takes alot of energy on us. Producing a nook woth our own thoughts is something really self fulfilling.

i try to be both a writer and a reader. i have to read a lot first before i can write something. i get my inspiration and starting idea from what i read. i read anything i get my hands on. after reading or while reading, ideas hurl and swirl around my head. it is a matter of catching some of them and give life on paper.

reader

writer

When I am tired, I am a reader but I will still response. I only write when I have something to share here. Writing for the sake of writing is too tiring for me. My purpose here is not to make money in a short time.

We are the same in the sense that we only write when we have something to share. It's good to hear from you fella. Happy Mylotting!

You had just made me laugh! I thought penpals are already obsolete. Never heard about it for so long. Don't worry both of us will be good writers in time. Mylot do help harness our writing skills.
