Stop Your Writing and Read!?

Planning your reading and writing.

To explore and experiment with new writing styles — read other writers’ articles.

To be inspired — read other writers’ articles.

To be entertained, and to entertain my readers — read other writers’ articles.

Robert Ralph, who owns “New Writers Welcome,” asks writers to read to gain writing tips and styles from other writers.

How?

Brett Millan suggests doing your reading this way each day:

5 articles from people you follow

5 articles from people who follow you

5 articles from people or subjects you have not read

I don’t do 5 for each category. But I’ve been trying to read this way for a while.

It’s helped me create writing pieces and discover new writers and great works as well.

Thanks for reading!
