I'm a great stream-of-consciousness writer and a tremendous over-talker.
But I can write clearly, and frequently too concisely for some of my professors in grad school that used to get irritated with the shorter length of my papers, though when I tried to make them longer, they told me my point got lost.
I'm a horrid speaker. I turn red. Not just "red" but horribly over-carbon-monoxide-poisoned-she's-going-to-pass-out-or-explode-any-minute-cherry-red. My mouth goes dry. And I forget things and ramble. And give too many comparisons trying to make my point. It sucks. I think that verbal and auditory expressors and learners are so different that there's not much of a correlation for similarities until you hit the kinesthetic learners/expressors. Those are the ones that write their own speeches and command attention when giving them.
Like Mr. Commando Eagle Underpants.
