never really liked reading, unless its about a topic i have previous interest in like reading about. though i attribute my dislike of books and reading to just having to read things i had 0 interest in as a kid then not being able to visualize things and just having a low attention span for things im not interested in lol
i feel y'all on the art thing. ive always wanted to draw and be good at art and I feel like there is a block to me developing any real artistic ability. I basically gave up trying cause its so frustrating. dont know if its related but I imagine being able to visualize things easy makes it easier to draw
