Are you more of a reader or writer?

I am more a reader than a writer.I like to read various topics with great interest from my early childhood days.In my teens,I am addicted to detective stories and tried to write one of my own.But alas!I can't go into much details like a professional writer.I think it is due to my laziness.But I managed to send some short stories to weekly magazines but they all were returned.So,I stopped writing and remain a reader.Cheers!

I would say I am more of a writer or trying to be. I have alot of ideas that I like to put on paper. I enjoy writing fiction stories. Some have been facts and put a little twist into it. You should try writing you do sound like you have it in you. If you get lost inbetween thats ok that part of it. That is just another writing style. I also enjoy reading a good book. I love any drama. I don't like the romantic mushy stuff. Hey you are a writer. You seem to write everyday in mylot. Happy lotting.

well, me either! I'm more of a reader. I like reading novels, stories and articles of any kind than writing one of them. Although i have wanted to write articles but there were too many ideas popping out and i got confused where to fit them. LOL! Even when explaining something during quizzes when i was in highschool and college. Expect that i had one of the shortest answer, not because i didn't know it, but because i didn't know how to express my thoughts in words.

I am more of a reader than a writer. Although a lot of people here and in my regular life want me to write a book. I've started several, but I keep getting stuck. I never get stuck reading a really, really good book. I have to see it to the end. But something I'm writing, I know the outline, the beginning, middle, and end. So why write it? I get stuck transitioning from one to another and I don't like to get bogged down with visual effects like describing what the characters look like or the room. I like simple scenes like a tent with a vendor and lots of versions of one product in it. An elderly couple at a table-that's good enough for me to write. So the visual readers who crave descriptions would starve with my writing.

I would say that I am more of a reader. I'm a bit like you with the fact that I have lots of ideas and plots but I just can't get around to writing them in any coherent form. I also get lost in reading something and then sometimes forget what my idea was.

me too.i read various books when i was young.if you read kinds of books and you will become sensitive person,you can cry for the dropping flowers and leaves,you can be happy for the little things,even a fine day makes you smile all day.for this there are lots of ideas flash in your mind just like stars sparkle in the firmament.so when some ideas flash in my mind i will write it down, maybe one day i will write something for myself.

Although I am trying to be both, I still might have to say that I'm a little more of a reader than a writer. I really do enjoy reading and such. It's really one of my favorite things to do, but I also enjoy writing and part of me wishes I would do more of it. Part of me wishes I'd write more, which is something that I am trying to do.

I'm more of a reader also --- I guess that's why I'm not making much money here at myLot, LOL! Seriously, I enjoy reading other people's discussions and occasionally will comment on them. I've never been very good at putting my ideas down on paper. Even during high school and college I had difficulty getting my thoughts organized and coherent when they were written down.

I'm more of a reader. I love to write too, but there are times when I can't seem to be able to write anything at all. You know, writer's block. There are times when I'd have so many ideas in mind, but words just aren't perfect to put them into. Sometimes I depend on emotions. Strong emotions trigger up the writer in me. Unfortunately, strong emotions only come once in a while.

On the contrary, I can read anytime, anywhere, regardless of emotions. I really love to read! If I were to choose between hanging out and reading, I'd definitely choose reading. I used to hate it when people think of "reading" as a nerdy thing to do. When they see a person reading, they'd say something like, "Hey come on! Drop down that book! Get a life!" It's like saying that reading steals away our chance of being really happy in life. Well, they're definitely wrong because I'm absolutely happy with my books. Plus, reading is good for our well-being too! As Francis Bacon once said, "Reading makes a full man."=))

Recently I have become more of a writer spending more of my time writing than reading, but I still try to find time for reading. Of course, some of the things I write on require some research so I do read some other things when I am writing.
