I am a writer

-->

At the moment I consider myself a writer, though I was not until the day I first met a special person who had modified radically my view point about it. I had spent my entire life without caring much about “writing matters” because they resulted senseless and bored to me. However, there was something inside this special person that moved my soul and mind leading me to experience writing from a different perspective. I believe that some people have an ability to change other people´s lives without any logical reason in the same way this friend changed mine. One of the most crucial aspects he taught me is to explore author’s words and feelings beyond lines which guided me to begin my own way into the writing world. Therefore writing has enabled me to express my ideas, desires, feelings and transformed me a complete free woman.

Above all, I must admit that I am just an amateur who is far away from being a professional or famous writer. Though I still consider myself a “writer” because during a short period of time I was able to build a solid confidence with no pressure at all to write whatever came to my mind. Little by little writing tasks stopped being slow and tedious to become some powerful energy that captured my attention.

At first I became a “reader”. Each time I read a text I concern every detail, such as the appropriate combination of words, the meaning beyond them, the effect the author intends to cause, and of course I always evaluate the possibility to apply similar sources or phrases in my productions. I believe reading is a necessary tool to get into the writing world because it gives us the possibility to be in the other side, to become “audience”. Thus being audience we are able to interpret someone else´s words, as well as the feelings these words could generate inside us which is closely related to my responsibility as a writer.

Then I realized that so as not to enclose myself within the writing matter, I needed to find a motivation, the one I had lost. This lost motivation came from my classmates who taught and showed me we all belonged to the same learning process where we had fun and learned from others, with no prejudge at all. I think this motivation indeed helped all of us to build a better relationship and create a good climate and atmosphere during the lessons we shared.

All in all I decided to leave aside any judgment or insecurity, relay on my feelings, and write whatever I wanted taking into consideration my pears opinions about it, which their absence  had prevented me to succeed in to becoming a good writer.
