I Want to be a Writer

 

 

I want to be a writer.

I want to create a world that people will want to live in.

I want to create characters that people will fall in love with.

I want to make people feel things that they otherwise wouldn’t feel.

I want to bring out an empathy in them that will tear their hearts to pieces every time one of my characters is hurt.

I want to write a book that will make people feel like nothing will ever be the same again.

I want to be like all of those great writers that I still love even though they broke my heart. J.K. Rowling, John Green, Russel T. Davies, Stephen Chbosky, J.D. Salinger, Steven Moffat.

I want people to immerse themselves in a world that I create and love me even after I break their hearts.

I want to teach them things that they wouldn’t have learned anywhere else.

I want to help them with my stories. I want my work to be loved long after I am gone.

If I help someone, anyone with what I have written, if I make somebody feel something then I will have done my job. Then other people will call me a writer.
