Thursday's And Then Some Essay preview
Do you want to be a writer?
by Richard L. Weaver II

Excerpt:
There are some basic elements of writing that may not be present for all writers (there are always exceptions), but it is precisely these elements that make writing easier and more comfortable. You need to begin with one overriding and important focus: read widely, read broadly, and read often. Ease and comfort in writing often directly results from your ease and comfort in reading. When you like to read, it is more likely that you will like to write.
