Intro

I love to read. I love to write. Both are very important to me.  Reading can open a whole new world and it brings me joy.  But writing can create a whole new person.  When the pen touches the paper words start to flow.  Still to choose one is like to choose which of your siblings you like better. Some say easy but is it?
Characteristics of writers are vast and many.  Some writers are high to the moon some are lower than the Earths core which is talent.  There are many a writer who know no boundaries and are free. To be free to write as you wish is a great gift.  
I have always wanted to be a writer and to create.  Ever since my childhood I have always had paper and pen in my grasp. Inspiration from other writers have influenced my writing severely.  Michael Crichton, J.K. Rowling and various other authors.  The best thing about being a writer is the ability to create something.  Being able to write a story and create lives, and places, and events.  You can create people that are completely different from you and yet so similar.  Have those people laugh and cry, fall in love and feel more than any could imagine.
Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once.
