I want to make this perfectly clear.
If you write, you are a writer.
That is the literal definition of the word.
I don’t care what you write. Writing is an action, a habit, a hobby, a profession, and fun.
It’s creative and playful as well as informative and organizational.
Whether you write fiction, poetry, non fiction, or children’s stories…
Whether you write words for a picture, within a journal, or in the sand…
It doesn’t matter what you write, where you write, or how you write.
It’s all writing. It’s all the written word.
And as long as you do that, you are a writer.
Be proud of that.
Be proud you put words on a page.
Celebrate it. Announce it.
Who cares what language you write in. Who cares if anyone will read your words one day. None of that matters.
You wrote. You have written. You deserve the title: Writer.
What do you write? How? Where? I wanna know. Tell me. Let’s celebrate it.

It’s one of those things we have to constantly tell writers.
Was it our schools that said you can aspire to be writer? Is that where the problem came from?
