Well this past week was full of celebrations... my anniversary, Juneteenth then father’s day. So I am pooped (yep I said it). I have found the people to do my site and I am geeked. I have to wait a moment to make sure the finances are looking right and not just jump in with both feet like I usually do.
Today I want to talk about what makes a good writer.
A good writer is someone who not only captures the audience and allows them to see things from their perspective but also someone who is aware of and concerned about the reader. Someone who consciously makes the reader angry, sad, happy, horny, excited, and scared and anything else you can think of. A good writer is a tour guide on the journey you are taking as you read directing you where to look but at the same time letting you enjoy at your own pace without getting lost. Most of the writers that I like are people I have met, mainly because I am a person who likes the writing 2 b from a real life point of view even if it is fiction. Word warriors as they are often called spark those deep sometimes primal feelings and emotions that we often are forced to hide. I take writing seriously because there is such power and beauty in what words and thoughts can bring forth with put in the right sequence.
