In my opionion I do not consider myself a writer because if i really was a true writer I would actually enjoy it. When I have to write something whether it is a paper, taking notes, filling out something, i apsolutely dread it. I hate using a writing utencel and writing something, anything. Thoughts do not come to my mind very easily which makes whatever I have to write a difficult task. I am always jealous though of every one elses writing work. I feel that I am a horrible writer jsut because of the way thoughts come into my mind. I have to litereally sit there and think of what to write for a long time before i actually start a paper. It is very time consuming. Even though i do not consider myself a writer, I do in fact wish I was writer. I always wanted to write books or poems when I was a little kid but obviously that dream went out the window due to my horrible writing skills. It's alright though. I do try my best when i write though. It justtakes me ten times longer then everyone else to write a paper. As long as it gets done and it gets done right is all I am really worried about. I hope to some day consider myself to be a writer.
You're definitely not a "horrible" writer, Kelsey. I'm not going to sit and tell you that "everyone is a writer" - because I don't believe that - but everyone can WRITE.
ReplyDeleteThe incubation period for ideas is different for everyone - but the best writers aren't necessarily those who accomplish writing tasks quickly. I know some very slow writers who manage to produce brilliant prose.
