300 Writing Prompt #1

Hey guys! So I have been reading a lot about different ways to make my blog better (not studying, sorry family) and making it different than everyone else's. Finding a way to stick out from other bloggers. I feel like blogging is a great way for me to express myself and I hope each person that reads my posts can feel a connection to me or understand me a little better.

With that being said, I have decided to upload a blog post every Thursday from my book of 300 Writing Prompts. I bought this neat book from target before I left for college having all intentions doing one prompt a day. Unfortunately I've only wrote in it once.. I know, I suck lol. The prompts are anything from funny, serious, personal, and off the wall things. I hope this is a way for me to be unique from other bloggers and connect someway to each and every one of my readers!

However, I need a title for my Thursday posts. I have drawn a blank for days. I want you guys, my readers to help me come up with a name to title them. It is important to me to keep my readers interested and I feel like this is a great way, by reader input! There is comment section at the bottom, or you can message me on facebook or instagram, anything. Just let me hear your ideas about a catchy title!

"There is a strong current trend among kids to read comic books or graphic novels instead of regular books. What do you think about that?"

If you would have asked 4th grade nat I probably would have answered this a little something like.. "well I think only boys read these because they are weird and just want to look at pictures" I have never been much for reading, weird since I have a blog, but oh well. But I never found an interest in comic books, I always thought they were a little confusing. I would only look at the pictures or would not understand what was going on. I think people that can read comic books and graphic novels have a unique way of understanding things. I give all props to them! Although now, I would change my answer. If I had to choose between a Harry Potter book (no offense, I love the movies but the books are just toooo long for me) and a comic book, baby hand me that comic book all day long! I would figure out a way to understand that book. I'm sure I would get side tract looking at the cute little puppy, and how cute Madi's shoes are (I made those up). But I would get it done. In all seriousness I would say it takes a special skill and practice reading graphic novels. Some of those books you have to read upside down, inside out, right to left while doing a head stand. So with that being said, I think if you read graphic novels and comic books over a regular book you have to be genus. Kids find pictures to be more interesting, at least I do anyways. A book with 200 pages of only words vs. a comic book with 200 pages of pictures and some words.. No wonder a lot of kids like to read them. I also think it probably has to deal with what kind of leaner the kid is. If they can just read the text and fully understand or need some pictures to help them out. All in all, reading is great. It is a great hobby that I wish I would have enjoyed as a kid. Maybe if I would have put down those Junie B. Jones books that I never understood and picked up a comic book or graphic novel I would have actually enjoyed reading.

I hope you will find these post interesting and something enjoyable to read. Like I said, some of them can be off the wall topics. Let me know of them titles, pretty please with a cherry on top!

shoulda been a comic book reader,
