Writers as Readers
When I read I need the following things: a quiet and comfy
environment, and a good book.
I am interested in writing fiction. The reason that fiction
interest me is because of the thought that you can make
something unreal seem realistic through your writing. Even
though some nonfiction books are okay, I just like to be able
to create a whole new world through my fiction writing. It
doesn't have to be based on a real life story, it just has to read
realistically in your mind.
Lets just say that I didn't have the easiest childhood. My best
memories connected with reading were from when I used my
reading to escape from my life into a whole new world.
I think that someone who reads a lot would become a
stronger writer because reading helps bring out people's
imagination. I definitely think that we pick up a lot from
themes and etc. from the books we read because it helps us
get an idea of we want to say and how we want to say it.
I might write a book someday. It might be a story based on
my life growing up or a fictional story that I make up. I would
want to be described on the "About the Author" section as: an
outgoing person who against all odds became a writer.
I love that Maya Angelou quote! I do hope you write a book someday--I know you have a lot to say...
