Question

 I have often been considered strange when I tell people that I want to be a writer, because for most people, or at least teenagers in my geographic loca?tion, see writing as a difficulty. The reason why I want to be a writer is that writing gives me the power to create worlds and people out of nothing. We can create a picture in a few minutes with our minds. We have the power to influ?ence others, even people we've never met!

  I have always wondered if it is the same thing that drives me, as a writer, as what drives video game creators or directors. We are all creating something out of nothing. The thing that is so amazing about writers is that we create something out of tools that don't cost more than a dollar (a piece of paper and a pencil). For writers it is all in our head. Our wonderful brain is our tool.

   Some people have this simple way of writing that can sweep us off our feet. Those who have this gift often do not see the beauty in it. It is sad real?ly. Writing is such a basic element(元素)in our society that many take advan?tage of it and don't realize its greatness. It takes someone from the inside to understand and admire the art of putting words together to form a sentence; it sounds so simple and yet there is so much more to it than meets the eye.

  Being a writer is a wonderful thing―something that is gifted to all of us who have the ability to form sentences on paper. Being a good writer or even great writer is the hard part. Oh! And don't even get me started on being a published writer.
