Read the following article and answer the question.

So in high school , I was in a band . We were pretty awful . I think we were better at writing songs than we were at performing them , actually , because I just came upon an ancient notebook of mine with a ton of them written down , and other snippets of songs never finished . In case we ever re - form and make it big , I wo n't post any of the finished beauties on here .

why were we better at writing songs ?
we were not skilled with our instruments
