Reading should be a repeat performance.
You can't write if you don't read.
Writers who don't read can't write well. It's that simple. The more you read, the better you read, the better you'll write. The upside is that you can't read too much, and even 'junk' reading can be constructive.
I have a few close friends with whom I can practice speaking Italian, but I mostly maintain fluency through reading.
I always seem to be reading several books at once.
The more you read, the better you get at it.
I'm trying to learn how to read. I have a tutor out on the road. It is great.
Let all the time you can get be spent in trying to learn to read.
All attempts at gaining literary polish must begin with judicious reading, and the learner must never cease to hold this phase uppermost. In many cases, the usage of good authors will be found a more effective guide than any amount of precept.
I practice reading all the time. I read everything and having so many scripts to read, which really helps out as well.
I never stopped reading.
When a new book comes out or becomes accessible in whatever form, I get it and I read it.
Literary texts do not exist on bookshelves: they are processes of signification materialized only in the practice of reading. For literature to happen, the reader is quite as vital as the author.
Every opportunity to practice is a gift to the developing reader. Practice, practice, practice, in every form and medium!
Since I'm in a band, and I'm not usually in situations where I need to read, it doesn't come up as often, and I don't rely on it as much.
