Are you a writer or a reader?

In: Personal Ramblings

This is not a poll, this is some question I always wanted to ask myself, now that I got the answer here is me asking you whether you are a writer or a reader.
Well I wanted to ask, whether you are a blogger or a blog reader but, that always sounded too specific to me. A writer and a reader sounds something like a generic term, though a blogger is a writer indeed.

You can be both though, then this question would be What do you enjoy most reading or writing?

So Are you a writer or a reader?
Well technically all bloggers are writers but I call myself a reader more than a writer, because when I write a blog post it does not strike me till I read it myself, yes I am always the first person to read my own post.
 

When I read what I have written it gives me a different experience altogether than when I was actually writing the post. I don't know if this is unique to me only, but it definitely gives me the kicks to read something I write, because I just get amazed I can write something I like to read too.

Well yes I am a reader, I read so many things daily, I have subscribed to over hundreds of feeds and that little icon on my desktop taskbar constantly keeps on popping up new feeds that people have written.

All I wanted to ask was whether you are a writer or a reader? Do you enjoy reading your own blogs? Do you feel that once you have written something it is worth a reading by yourself?

Many of us write blogs for other readers who come to visit our sites, but do you enjoy visiting your own site to read what you have written.

Ok now you may say I have gone crazy, but no what I believe is that there are two different mind set's people tend to have while reading and writing.

While writing you may think about other's persons perspective ( not true always ) but while reading you will try to delve into what the writer wants to say to you.

This post is not complete, there is so much more to say. Its your turn now, I want to switch roles and become a reader, so have your say on it, all your comments are welcome.

Keith I also consider myself a reader rather than a blogger :-)
