I love reading, so I do it as much as possible. I love writing too and usually do it on a whim, but immediately hate everything I write once I read something more profound.

How can you write so much? just a reflection about what you read?

I read this fiction three times, first time in highschool. It was a fun adventure.

Typically I zoom over my favourite novel 'The Hallowed Prince' approximately one time over per hour in my favourite Brooklyn coffee shop before ordering a peach latte and listening to my lesbian BFF

It's easy, take all the effort and desire for recognition and place it on the page instead of the screen.

I've been a copywriter for more than a decade. In some jobs I've turned out thousands of words of long-form copy a week. My current role is in a complex field of healthcare so I spend a lot of time researching and talking to doctors.

I gave up writing creatively about the same time I started doing it professionally. I'm trying to get into it again. I write about 1,000 words per week in two sittings, which is pathetic by my professional standards.

As for reading, christ, 2 hours a day average?

Got unemployed at the very beginning of the month, and now taking that time to focus on writing my first book. Currently spending around 5 hours a day on it.
I also try to read one hour a day, everyday.
Enjoying this aspect of life so far but I have to find another job, sadly.

One to two hours a day is typical for me. I'm always happy when I get more than that done though.

Certainly not enough. I try to write for two hours a day and read anywhere from seventy to two-hundred pages a day, depending on my mood. I work as a waiter/server in a widespread corporate restaurant, perfect job for me as when I get off work and go home, my mental energy is at full capacity. My first job was in an office and oh boy, when you get home from a 8-4:30 workday at a boring, stare-at-your-computer data entry and handle paperwork and file all day job, it completely drains you. I spent a lot of time watching television during that time, reading was for the weekends. I am much happier now.

I used to work at a cafe/bar in the summer and it was perfect to get your mind thinking about shit, manual work frees you to think about other stuff

[Anonymous No.14873122]

Exactly. I've literally composed verse and sentences in my head while bringing tables their drinks and food, and I can even write it down whenever since it looks like I'm organizing an order in my server book.
