Becoming a better writer is going to help you become a better reader, and is the real payoff.
Improving your writing skills can significantly enhance your reading comprehension and enjoyment. As you develop the ability to express thoughts clearly and creatively, you'll find that you can better understand and appreciate the nuances of other writers' works. This reciprocal relationship between writing and reading creates a richer literary experience.
Anne Lamott, in her book "Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life," emphasizes that the true benefits of honing your writing lie in becoming a more insightful reader. As your writing abilities grow, they deepen your engagement with texts, transforming how you perceive and interpret them.
