To be a good writer, you need to be a good reader. Any good writer who is not a good reader is a magician. Reading widens your imaginations and enriches your experience. It also builds and grows your repertoire of vocabulary so that when you sit down to write, the right words and terms come to you naturally and effortlessly. So what do you read? Some say read anything you lay hands on. But this can be bad advice, especially for beginners. Read what is of interest to you. Novels are good reading materials, but not every topic may appeal to you. If your interest is science fiction or political satire, read more of that. When your reading habit matures, you can venture into unfamiliar terrains. You can be a good writer. Yes, you can. But start reading today. #ManassehWritingTips
