Writers are mysterious beings, and I like to believe so. Sometimes, their fictional words manifest physically, and events unfold without the writer’s direct influence. Take Nostradamus, for example- many saw him as a prophet with premonitions, but I simply saw him as a writer.
The written word has persisted as long as humanity has existed, and without it, life would be very different. I firmly believe writers should be recognised and celebrated; they don’t need awards like the Pulitzer to be valued. How do you measure a person’s worth? Just look at their library. We live in an extraordinary world full of wonders, best conveyed through the written word by great writers.
It’s a pleasure to work alongside writers, and if you’ve never truly read a book, I encourage you to start today- any genre, fiction, or non-fiction. It could truly change your life.
Just read.
I am Christy Nelson, and I am grateful to work with writers.
