My brain goes on a self discovering journey!

To be a writer is such an honor, to have people read your work and say its good is a blessing and gift. To have a mind that never dries up is unimaginable. But can I count myself as one of them? A writer is like story teller that entertains through words. He or she can turn words that are used by the common man into threads of silk and lumps of gold. To be able to hold a pen in my hand and fill the empty white paper with sentences and words that people enjoy. Does the sole purpose of writing entertainment or is there some kind of fulfillment for the writer hidden somewhere?


Who am I? and what is it that sets me apart from the other gifted writers in the world? What makes what I write special?readable? or enjoyable for that matter? When someone says "hey! that's some really good writing there." does it mean that I actually am good? Silly as I may seem, the many comments I've received over the years from teachers,friends and peers were positive. But it wasn't always like that. I remember the times when I would have red ink all over my note book page because of all the grammatical errors and spelling mistakes. My teacher telling me to re-do certain sections. There were times when I had my note book thrown at me because my teacher thought that I had did a terrible job at the assignment/home work.

When I think about those pre-high school and high school days, even now at college; I can't help myself but wonder whether or not those horrible and embarrassing moments helped me improve my way of writing or are people just being "nice" and Tryna spare my feelings? I know that it is impossible for a teacher to give you an A on a paper if they think that you don't deserve it. So maybe I got a little something going on here..hm mm... I wonder how much I got it going?

So if you're reading this, how would you rate my work (if I may refer to it as such) on a scale from 1-10. 1 being horrific and 10 being wow-ing(lol). Let me know..I really wanna know.
