Writing has to be organized or else it won't make sense to the reader. Even though passages of writing can be plain and seen as precious, they need adequate description of events, places, people, and things that are going on in the story or else the reader will not understand what they are reading about. However, too much description will simply cause the reader to lose focus and wonder if there is something of a simpler nature that they can read instead. One does not simply gain knowledge just by reading something new; one gains knowledge by reading something that they can understand and appreciate even if it is something they have read before. All writing has a certain amount of potential and whether that potential grows or shrinks is up to the writer. The writer of something has control of what they write and how much it can draw people in depending on how it is written. Written work that is given time and enough love that it is written in a pleasurable fashion will attract positive attention. Writing is not well organized and either over or under-descriptive, however, will not attract attention of readers simply because a messy piece of writing is not often considered attractive enough to read. 

It is truly a wonderful thing if one who reads about the gospel already has a knowledge of it, as they can come to love it even more than they already do. However, it is even more wonderful when someone who doesn't have a knowledge of the gospel reads something associated with it, as it is an opportunity for them to learn something new if they are willing to open their mind. The gospel was written in such a way that even people who don't know of it or much about it can read and learn to appreciate it if they want to. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ provide plain truths that are reasonably easy for those with open minds to understand if they choose to. Those who find beauty in the plain truths of the gospel make those truths precious simply by embracing them into their lives. We can enjoy the blessings that come from the gospel if we are so willing to just have an open mind and take the time to learn.
