Here's to Those Who Write
I sat enthusiastically with a pen and my diary in the hopes of writing the world changing article. After 30 minutes of wandering thoughts from rising prices of onions to my dinner last night, well, I was still blank. I patiently waited for my eureka moment and guess what it came, and it was everything it promised to be. I wrote a whole mental article on it, and then (SURPRISE!!!) my sheet was still blank. So, to make amends for my lost 1 hour 15 minutes of procrastination, I collected my all of my left determination and started writing. Once I read in an article – All writers procrastinate. Now don’t they? But doesn’t the rest of the human population. Then, what is that which makes some of us Bronte when rest of us struggle to write a proper paragraph? Is it by birth? Or DNA? How it is my classmate can integrate an equation but can’t write a simple article on tigers? Can writing be taught? If yes then how? Is there any qualification for writers? Can anyone who can form sentences consisting of more than three words call herself a writer?
I don’t know how to answer all of them. But I know something there is definitely a cocktail of persona that makes these people the warriors of literature that is not only imagination.
Writing anything and everything requires liberal amount of strong practical knowledge because everyone and judgmental and reasoning skills. Writers don’t live in the world of unicorns and rainbows. Actually they trot on the fine line between the real and the reel.
Ever wondered, you always end up knowing more about everything you read about? Because the writers are amazing observers and note the intricate details we mere normal people fail to notice.
Discipline, this may seem uncanny but the ultimate truth. You may not have a beautiful and flowering relationship with this word but accept it; my dear friend, discipline loves you it will stay with you wherever you go. These writers are quite clever, their characters can be brats but they are quite disciplined people. Ask them, they will deny it (It’s a trade secret.).
Now, the aspect this article won’t be complete without- Imagination. The world of books seems real because the writer imagined it intensely. But we all have imaginative supremacy. The writers just have a way with words. Be jealous.
Finally, the ultimate secret without which Hogwarts wouldn’t feel so real, we all cried after Augustus Waters died (sniffle), fell in love with Darcy (sigh) and raise your hands if your breathe always gets caught in the climax (Add me.)
