The need to Write!
By Paul Graham @Paul Graham Blogs
Writing is not just a way to convey ideas
But also a way to have them!
There is a way of thinking that can only be done by writing.
If you don't need to go deeply into a problem,
You can solve it without writing
But if you need to solve a complicated , ill-defined problem
It will almost always help to write about it!
Which means that someone who's not good at writing -
Will be almost at a disadvantage to solve such problems.
You cant think well without writing well
You can't write well without reading well
People who want just information may find other ways to get it
But people who want to have ideas-can't afford -
Not to write well and read well!
