The Creative Writer

in #writing8 years ago

An individual who possesses the power to transform your average joe into someone poised to conquer the world and successfully does so, but not without numerous obstacles along the journey. Develop characters who lack empathy, empower the weak-minded to demolish ruthless dictators, passionately love their partner, or live alone in the forest populated by talking animals. Suspense is their best friend if a literary concept was biotic. Conflict is their fuel to power the story from beginning to end. Their artistic skill allows them to capture ideas for their current literary works from absorption of nearby conversations at work, college, and mall food courts, major and minor events portrayed by the media, their own everyday struggles, and by reading other fictional stories. You may or not physically observe these people outside of a bookstore, their home office, library, or another quiet space due to extreme levels of concentration in another reality of their invention. However, they are human also, they still crave for tasting new foods prepared by restaurant and best friend chefs, walking their dog in the city park, chatting with colleagues at the coffee shop, etc. In fact, their non-writer friends, family members, or coworkers all possess one distinct role, to permit the flow of original ideas destined to shape a future, fictional tale and produce constructive criticism from the reader’s perspective.  They use internet search engines with bizarre tastes for information ranging from: the body language of a kidnapped person to how vaccines are developed to stop an epidemic. They engage with their fellow writers similar to speaking in a second language, always prepared to provide and hear professional advice non-writers never understand. There are numerous subgroups, some only write young adult, children’s, alternative history, science fiction, fantasy, novels, poems, short stories, or a combination of several. There are no limitations to an aspiring creative writer’s potential.

Remember, whether you are an aspiring writer or a bestselling author, the only true limitations in life are not circumstances which derive from health, financial, and relationship problems. They are your drive to form letters into words, words into sentences, sentences into dialogue and narrative paragraphs, and finally, published written works of art. Motivation is key to develop your stories regardless of their characteristics. The best avenue to take is one filled with individuals of similar interests, those focused to accomplish their outlined goals. Never fear failure, the greatest teachers in life are events which provide stepping stones towards enhancing yourself positively. Always be open to constructive criticism, nobody has, is, or will be perfect. The best action plan to follow is one where you lower your guard and absorb necessary information to move yourself forward in life. And lastly, don’t listen to the naysayers, these people consume more than they produce, they possess bad habits. Don’t infect yourself with doubt of potential, anger towards successful people, and beliefs of being taken advantage by others. You are above this ultra-low standard, now return to writing and fulfill your destiny.
