Knowledge is Pleasure

The more I write and study writing, the more I enjoy reading. Bad writing makes me appreciate good writing more. Good writing makes me happy. I am awed by good writing and encouraged to keep trying to improve my own work. Knowledge is power, and knowledge is pleasure. I know which I prefer.
