What is a Writer!? AM I A WRITER?

Heck yes, I am. I mean, I'm double majoring in creative writing... Lets hope that would make me a writer. According to the dictionary, a writer is someone who writes texts.
To me, a writer is someone who expresses their ideas and thoughts in any way that they want, that enjoys to write. I believe writers can be funny, straight forward or a combination of both. No specific type of writing forms a writer, for "us writers" can do whatever we want to be classified in this profession. A writer is one that can formulate ideas into words into sentences into paragraphs into papers, blogs, essays or rants. I tend to rant a lot, if you can't tell. My preffered type of writing is colloquial rants, and I have a personal blog as well where I just writewritewrite and do whatever I feel like doing. A writer knows grammar and spelling and punctuation, I hope.. but at the same time, they don't have to. youse can write however u want and do whatevzzz!! Some books aren't even grammatically correctly written... as in "A Million Little Pieces", the author doesn't use punctuation at all really.
A writer can be whatever they want to be. No one can tell you that you're not a writer- one's expression of thoughts on paper has no limits.

  1. Sure, thats definitely a writer. Anyone who has the ability to put thoughts on any sort of thing is a writer. There can be song writers, screen writers, playwrites, its all a form of being a writer. It is up to the person to consider if he or she is a writer or not, because writing can even happen personally in a diary or journal that may serve no purpose to anyone but the author. This is a subjective FFW.
