You Should Be A Good Reader First

林鋒

Some children think writers are great and they can tell people a lot. So they also wish to be writers some day. They mean that they want to write stories or books which many persons will read. I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers and to read a lot in order to be good writers.

Nearly all great writers read too long before they started to school， and read for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. Instead of watching TV in the evening， they spend much of their spare time reading books.

If you are a good reader， it wont take you long to do the reading homework your teacher asks you to do. Then you will have time to read other books for fun. Because you read so well， you keep looking for more books to read.

While making up your mind to become a good writer， you had better say to yourself，“I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer.”
