So you feel that reading being necessary to write well is not true, yet the first 2 points of advice include directions to read, to re-read, to understand what you read, and then to read more. And in your last point, to write while remembering what you read.
replyAre you sure you actually disagree with the article?
Yes. The article says that you need to read a lot to write well. You actually need to write a lot, and to read carefully, high quality, and potentially low quantity too (to use more time to write).
replyNot sure why you’re downvoted this much, as it’s a reasonable point of view.
replyReading as much as you can will not make you a better writer if you just read the same material and/or low quality material.
