Am I a Writer? Erin

As of right now I do not really consider myself a writer however, I would like to be. I am interested in learning how to get better because one day I would love to write for a magazine (hence my major, magazine journalism). I don't necessarily hate to write but, I prefer to write what I'm passionate about. When given boring prompts I tend to do worse than something I like learning and talking about. If you tell me to write about fashion, I could in heartbeat. Fashion is something I want to learn more about and get involved in. I am also good at this type of prompt or question because it's open ended and I can freely express how I feel. I do think that the word writer is considered a title. A title for someone who does it as a career or a pastime,it is something they are known for. I feel like with that title a writer is good with what they do and have years of schooling under their belt. Yes, everyone can write. But its how good you are that classifies you as a "writer" or just anyone putting pen to paper.
