Writers
They write
They type,
They’ll edit many times
Move words
’til they’ve
perfected every line
A writer
A lover
of words and page
Writers
aren’t born
somehow their made.
I’ve was a writer even before I realized what being one meant. It was more a nagging suspicion than a revelation. There was always something inside of me trying to get free. My first experience of wanting to create a story was after reading a Conan the Barbarian book. I saw the map inside and drew my own. I tried to write a story to go along with the map, but I never got around to it. I was in seventh grade at that time. I didn’t actually write any stories that year, but I could see the characters on the map and I began to hear character’s voices in my head. I knew where they lived, where they were going, and what they had to do. Although, these characters and plots have been with me for a long time, I have failed to write every story, but I’ve finished plenty along the way. I truly feel that writing is something that chose me.
