Elisabeth+Eiler

Reading has always come as an easy task to Elisabeth Eiler. From the time she stared sixth grade,and picked up a book considered too advanced for someone her age, she has loved the idea of being in a place where someone else has imagined or they themselves walked. The question "why do people read?" cannot be answered simply. Elisabeth Eiler feels that a certain percentage of the population will read to escape from their reality. After clarification she really meant that escaping from their reality was when that when someone is unsatisfied with their own mundane life they are much more likely to become involved in something that makes them feel as if they are a part of a different reality.  As a reader she would describe herself as being very good at remembering the words, and being very good at processing what she reads. She loves reading, and she would say that that's why she's considered a good reader. Some of her favorite books range from Oliver Twist, to The Host. As a writer she would say that she is a good writer when it comes to writing opinion based pieces. She has much more trouble however when she has to use the words of someone else and cite them. She feels that the words of others are very important, but when she writes she wants everyone to read her words. She wants everyone to know that the thoughts on the page came from her and not anyone else. She loves writing things with big and fancy words. She feels that they, for some reason, just make what shes writing sound more important.
