Does writing make you more intelligent? Page 2

I think your intelligence increases till your mid 20's and then stays at the same level for a considerable amount of time.

Therefore, I think that its more like that your intelligence makes you a better writer. Personally, I know that my writing is better now (At 25) than it was when I was 18.

Peter Cook wrote 'One Legged Tarzan' when he was 18. I doubt he could have written it at 13 though.

And then it all goes downhill when you get to 40.

Writing has made me do language better and I am more intelligenter than I was before

The brain is a muscle sort of. Exercise makes it strong. As I write so much I am an intellectual Geof Capes.
