What do you think is better out of the two? here are my reasons.
With drawing you need the skills of putting the image from your head onto paper and then on computer which need artistic skills on computer as well. drawing is also getting detail with colthes, facial expressions,background and shading.
With writting you need creative and imagination as well. with writing though you need to find words that express a certain passage. you also need to find describtive words to describe the surronding, the characther and the way they talk and act.
What are yours?

I'd say drawing takes talent, writing takes skill. Both require imagination... imagination or some good beer.

^ I swear, you'd probably mix well with the Aussies if you migrated to the land of Down Under, XOATL; they pretty darn well love their beer. xD
But, anyway, I'd say probably as much as XOATL, although it really comes down to the person. Some people have the skill to draw; some people don't. And that applies with (creative) writing as well. If someone's pretty much a freak, who can write and draw rather impeccably, then I tip my hat off to them.

That isn't true, drawing doesn't take talent it takes practice, dedication, persistence, hard work and patience. I can draw pretty well but not to the level of my liking. My friend once showed me her first drawings from the sixth grade, they were absolutely horrendous but now in the eleventh due to practicing alot ever since she can draw anything almost perfectly. Most of todays renowned artists had to practice their butts off to get their current level. ANYONE can learn how to draw through practice.

And anyone can learn how to write, but to write well, that takes as much practise as it does to draw well. That also brings me back to the point of that they're basically the same in requirements of skill, practise or imagination, it just depends on the person.

Imo, both take a trumendous amount of skill and practice.
It's taken me over 5 years to get a good drawing style and Ima still not happy with my artwork as much as I'd like to be. I still havta practice drawing to get close to something I can truely be proud of. I've got to work on the hands, clothing wrinkles, body anatomy, ect.
But writing also takes work, you also havta learn all the grammar rules, spelling rules, how to keep the reader interested, hot to make the plot moving at the right rate, when to make the characters talk and when to show their descriptions.
Simpley put, none is true talent. You can only have an interest into it. And that would be your choice if you want to improve that interest and turn it into a skill.
Of course, this is all my opinion of this. =)

I'm not too sure, but you're right, it takes lots of practice and skill. But the strange thing is, I never practiced my drawing. I just doodled and doodle and it eventually evolved from the time I was in Preschool to the present. The writing just hit me in 6th grade. I'd never written anything good in my life before that.

Well when people say they can't draw they can. they just need practice. it goes the same with writing.

That a invitation A_A? I mean... considering you're already down my pants... When people say they can't draw... they can't. It's just... no. Like trying to squeeze blood out of a rock. To gain Mastery of any field one needs the ability to develop existing skills/talents, i.e. Practice. But to have the foundations of those skills is a different thing. The ability to draw to a certain level requires many pre-existing qualities that practice will not be able to make perfect. Whilst writing is a constant process of reading, learning, writing, and so on and so forth. Writing even basic works (Drabbles/one-shots) is something that must be worked up to. Unless you're out of beer. Then I feel for you.
