A writer writes to free himself of the strange and many voices that all clamor at once in his head. He is a world within a person; a universe within a single organism. The ability to create thoughts and write them down is a talent unique to humankind; and the ability to convey an entire universe through but the written word is something few appreciate.

words are powerful. And stories hold meaning. Thus, stories of words or words of stories will always have powerful meaning behind them.

Yet the trial of a writer is never easy. The life of an artist hardly ever is. Some would call us insane, sitting at our desks, hands to keyboard, mulling over the lives of fictitious characters whom, in the real world, most people don't care for. Some would call us stupid for wishing for a fantasy that isn't real. Some, however, may call us dreamers, idealists, people who wish to be heard through their written word. Some, may call us artists. Some, gods among men.

Not some, but all, are right.

Whether by fanfiction or by real novel writing, it is clear to me that you, the author, appreciate writing and what you have accomplished on this site. I've found many parallels within this texts and my own life. I doubt that was intentional. Either way, I wanted to let you know that you've given me something to think about; and I'll be thinking about it for a long time.

I can definitely relate to this. Thank you for the story.

First thing I thought of was this:

7117467
That's all I want to do. To help others see just what they're capable of :)

7117652 That is scarily fitting.

7117659 Five minutes of pure, unadulterated metalcore, my friend. It fits everything.

7117685 Even fits a funeral?

I did nothing in this.:trollestia:

People get injured, everyone does. Sometimes it is so bad that they need surgery.

From here onwards I started to believe "The Writer" was in fact You, BombShelter, and I've gotta say, you blew up my mind with this story, thank you for all these stories you are writing and you will write, you've got a talent boy, and I think it will help you in your life. Never give up on that.

Peace...

Well... that was something... I guess? :unsuresweetie:

Don't listen to him.

Getting into writing is a strange thing. For myself, I wrote a few stories as a kid, one even got an award and featured in the school paper, but I never got caught by the endeavor for whatever reason. Then in my late teens, I endured some terrible experiences by hanging with the wrong crowd, and somehow found myself reading and writing fiction again. it helped me work through some emotions, but I petered out again without really connecting to writing, despite hindsight showing I had been feeling something special in it without knowing.

Then I come around to the present day, years later. My life is overall a mess, depression is tearing at me every day I drag myself out of bed, and threatens to take me under completely, and yet...

I have this story of mine. This one single effort in my life that is absolutely and totally mine and mine alone, that nobody can finish without me, because it is purely reliant upon me to continue. This world I build resides within me and is something that could never be taken from me, because nobody could ever write what it is going to be. Nobody else has this one power in my life, and it keeps me grounded in the darkest moments. It's a goal, a reason, an urge, an anchor. Even if every single other part of my life truly did get stripped away, nobody can take the story I am telling away, even if I couldn't publish it and it was just for me alone.

Writing fiction might be a potentially pointless endeavor in a normal practical sense, but make no mistake all the same. The work you do is yours alone. Others might have some similar ideas, but only you, the writer, can write the story you have within.

In a sense, the words I write are a reflection of my very spirit. Other stories may be similar, but never quite like my own.

The biography of a typical fanfiction writer? I like it.

Do tell me my good man, what was the first full episode you watched?

Now this just hits home.

Very good story. :twilightsmile:

Dear BombShelter,

I just want to say that I really, honestly enjoyed reading your stories, especially Point of Impact and its sequel. I hope you are well. :pinkiesmile:

A couple of spelling errors, but aside from that

Inspiring. Well done. :ajsmug:
