Okay, so I don’t really know if this is a big battle for anyone else, but it’s been a long-held question in my mind:
What do I love more: writing or reading?
Now, I can easily say that my love of reading led to my love of writing. But which do I love more?
I was thinking about this the other night, and I decided–at least currently–that I love reading more. But by a very very very narrow margin.
And if I were forced to choose only one that I could do for the rest of my life, it would be reading. Because as much fun as creating worlds and characters is, reading other people’s creations is a bit more fun. And it’s easier. Way easier. AND, I would never stop making up stories and people in my mind, I just wouldn’t write them down.
Hah! Take that imaginary-mean-person-who-made-me-choose-between-my-two-loves!!!
And then the other question is which do I love more: music or literature. And that is something I doubt I’ll ever be able to answer.
So, Readers! What Say Ye? Reading or Writing?
I decided the only way to respond was with a knee-jerk reaction and that’s writing, even if it is harder :P Reading is a very very very very very very close second.
If I actually sit and think about it, I’d never be able to tell you which I prefer :P
Agreed with Miss Cole — if I think about it too much I can tangled up and stuck on the question, but my gut feeling is writing. I’d still be happy writing my stories and putting them out there even if I could never read anyone elses, though there would be a big void in my heart.
