What is writing?
I'll tell you what it is.
It's a way for us to dump our emotions on paper and let our reader actually feel what we are feeling.
It is a way to get stress off our minds and to just get that awesome idea out so it can be born.
Writing isn't just writing words on paper and reading it aloud.
Writing is everything this world needs.
You are a type of writing,
creating you life as if it was a story,
So to answer your question,
Writing is life.

The author's comments:
We had to do this warm up in class and we had to write what the true meaning of writing was. This is what I came up with. What inspired me was my teachers, Mrs.Lemine and Mrs.Gould who are always pushing us to reach high expectations in writing and to advance ourselves. What also inspired me was my friend who insisted that writing was boring. But when she read my poems she realized what writing truly meant to the world.
