| Can you write a 'Bestseller' without ever reading one? I ponder the question; can a prospective author write a bestselling book without ever reading someone else's work? I ask this question as their are some rare forms of dyslexia that make it difficult for someone to read the written word and hold their concentration long enough to understand the plot, but reversely the disability doesn't affect their ability to visualize and put their own words down onto paper in a coherent way. Are their any current authors or has their been any successful scribe's in the past who suffered from this affliction? What do you think? |
